Before the holidays, we had seen that the law to legalize marriage equality in Switzerland seemed unstoppable and this has been confirmed.

A new poll shows an overwhelming majority of voters supports the legalization of marriage equality in Switzerland.

In Switzerland, LGBTQ couples would like to enjoy the same benefits as straight couples, benefits to which they don’t lay claim to as equal marriage isn’t legal and same-sex partnerships, which were legalized in January 2007, don’t provide complete equality of rights.

Switzerland now protects gay, lesbian and bisexual people from public hate speech, but this isn’t a beautiful victory.
