Tue… Tuet… Every middle and beginning of the month is considered a day of hope for numbers gamblers, but for LGBTQ+ people in Thailand, September 28 at 9:00 a.m. will arrive. It would be another day of most hope for them.
Many people probably know the news about the resolution approving the draft. Marriage Act along with additional legislative amendments to recognize same-sex couples as life partners in July This is the first step in a welcome change.
But for the important step towards gender equality, only the Marriage Act may not be the answer It does not cover access to welfare and benefits for same-sex couples. Therefore, it is the origin of this demand for marriage law.
If you turn back time Gender diversity in Thailand has existed since a long time is unclear. Some say that the Ayutthaya period But that was recorded since the early Rattanakosin period, at that time, men who had sex with men were called sodomy, and women who had sex with women were called playing friends. which was recorded in Samut Kot Kham Chan — Thai Literature and in the mural painting in the temple as well
At present, Thailand seems to be open to LGBTQ + both through the media, drama series that can be found everywhere. but in reality Thai society still has people who block. Explanation from an interview with teacher Kate-Kathawut Kangpiboon, an LGBT activist called it ‘conditional’ acceptance because being LGBTQ+ also affects work, family and life. Some people are lucky that their families understand. Some people are lucky that the company gives them the opportunity.
These things are not a matter of luck. It is a right that all human beings deserve equal rights. Because it’s not just about relationships or sex. but is related to the life, property and future of the couple
At present, there are 30 countries that allow same-sex couples to legally register marriage, of which only Taiwan is in Asia. is another country where same-sex couples can legally register their marriage and have rights like a male and female lover
