My sister has a phd in theoretical physics, dad has one in something to do with physical chemistry (still not sure what that is!). Dinner time got boring, so sorry LP and Paul, going back to the thread!
So SSM has been in for 12 months with relatively few SS couples tying the knot (~5% - may be spurious stats).
There is now a greater push re binary and non binary genders, the Tassie stuff about leaving gender off birth certificates, still strong debate about Safe Schools and anti LGBTQI discrimination (teachers and students) in religious schools.
These are not related to marriage, but seem to hold some strength in the non-hetero world. Couple of questions:
1) Have these gathered strength as they are the next thing on the list
2) What % of the population are we talking about that aren't hetero.
They are sort of curiosities of mine - haven't really formed views how well society is progressing with the polarising opinion that is offered on both sides of the debate.
