Equality

Hey everyone, tomorrow is a big day. We find out how people voted around equality for people who are LGBTQI- or as we sometimes refer to ourselves here- Rainbow people!

This thread is a place for you to come for support. We'll update it through today and tomorrow so that we can all be ready and looking out for each other. No matter how the results turn out. 

 

This is not a place to have a debate or to talk about what's wrong or right, it's just for support, we know you will respect that :).

That's probably the most perfect gif I've seen in reaction to the yes votes winning!!! 😄 😄 

Now that marriage equality has won the plebiscite, I can't wait for it to officially be legalised 🙂 🙂 

Love for all!!!! Heart

So, what's the next steps for you all? There might be some conversations over the next little while as people who are pro equality, or voted no talk about their feelings. Are y'all ready for that? How could we help?

That's very smart @redhead. I think social media is going to be inundated with arguments all day

Thanks for this Ben 🙂

I'll probably be at home I think. Maybe walking the dog. In a supportive environment whatever I'm doing, so that's cool.
