At least a few Mexicans have an incentive to stay home: Mexico Approves Gay Civil Unions >>MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexico City approved homosexual civil unions on Thursday, legalizing gay partnerships for the first time in the world's second-largest Roman Catholic nation. The capital's municipal assembly, controlled by left-wing legislators, voted for the measure 43-17 as hundreds of rival protesters demonstrated noisily outside the building. The move paves the way for same-sex civil unions in the city of 8.6 million people early next year. The local congress in the northern state of Coahuila, bordering Texas, began debating a similar plan to legalize gay unions this week. "These reforms are going to cause a snowball effect that no one will be able to stop," said David Sanchez of the left-wing Party of the Democratic Revolution, one of the few openly gay national congressmen.<<
