France - Demonstration for the Legalisation of Gay Marriage

Tens of thousands of people took to the streets of the French capital on Sunday, to rally in support of a government-proposed bill that would legalize same-sex marriage and adoption.As civil unions have been available for gay couples since 1999, the provision that allows adoption is now at the heart of the debate. Opponents of gay marriage and adoption, including most faith leaders in France, argue that the proposed reform would create psychological and social problems for children.
