YES!!!!!!!!! Told ya so. I've long said that New Mexico was actually the first state to legalize gay marriage.
It will be a long road before Texas has marriage equality. Texas is a very conservative red (Republican) state. Most of the state is conservative. That being said, there is one area that is not conservative; that would be the Austin area. In addition, there are a lot of fundamentalist that believe that being gay is an deplorable sin. Also, being gay is a choice. Being gay is like choosing your eye color--and I don't mean contact lenses.
Interesting that you say that, crickett... I've been looking at Texas as a possible opportunity for relocation. I was doing a bit of research, and it looked like Dallas had a decent "gay" area. I might have to check out Austin...
Take a look at this site in response to the trial It's been set up by some sad hick called Tom Alciere It's quite a funny read but only if you can laugh such things off.
