gay marriage

Just yesterday, gay marriage was legalized in the states of New Hampshire and Maine. As it is now, all of the New England states, with the exception of Rhode Island, have legalized gay marriage. This is a major step forward for equal rights for homosexual couples. However, there is only a few states now that have legalized this and they are only in one section of the country. There definitely needs to be more legalization of gay marriage in states that are not just New England states. There is no reason that gay couples should be denied marriage simply because conservatives think that marriage is only for heterosexual couples.
