100 same-sex couples get married in Mexico City mass wedding

Even after five years of living together in the Pacific resort city of Acapulco, something as simple as holding hands or sharing a kiss in public is unthinkable for Dayanny Marcelo and Mayela Villalobos.

Under a tent set up in the plaza of the capital’s civil registry, along with about 100 other same-sex couples, Villalobos and Marcelo sealed their union Friday with a kiss while the wedding march played in the background. Mariaurora Mota, a leader of the Mexican LGBTTTI+ Coalition, said the movement still is working to guarantee in all of Mexico the right to change one’s identity, have access to health care and social security and to let transsexual minors change their gender on their birth certificates.

Villalobos met Marcelo, a native of the beach town, there. Marcelo, a 29-year-old shop employee, said her acceptance of her sexual orientation was not as traumatic as Villalobos’, but she still did not come out as pansexual until she was 24. She said she had been aided by the Mexico City organization Cuenta Conmigo, — Count on Me — which provides educational and psychological support.

? '')))' It's a LGBTQ unfriendly misclassification; the misconception from the 1960's regarding the theory of homosexuality's cause! It's a 'SLUR', an erroneous classifications towards homosexuals' or preference of same sex relationships or LGBTQ liking... Unfriendly LGBT issue!

I hope they repent before the Lord returns. There's no air conditioning down there.
