Sixty Per Cent of Australians Back Gay Marriage

A poll conducted for Australian Marriage Equality found that three in five Australians support gay marriage. The survey of 1,100 respondents found 60 per cent of Australians were in favour of same-sex marriage and in the recognition of gay marriages performed overseas.

The Greens voters gave the highest % support, followed by Labour voters. But even 50% of conservative voters gave their support, now that's pretty good.

Women were more likely to support gay marriage than men. (It's not being made compulsory, boys) The younger age groups gave greater support than the older age groups, with the over 50's the only age group dipping under majority support. (It didn't happen in my day)

Bob Brown said, "The Australian people are way ahead of the Rudd government and the Turnbull opposition."

So, let's hope the boss of the beige people, Kevvy babe, reads the survey.

It really should be such a non-issue by now. If two people want to get married they should be allowed to. Why should anyone not involved have a say in it?

Nobody has any legitimate opposition to same-sex marriage, other than bigotry, so come on let’s get with the 21st century and make all those lesbians, with white dresses in their closets, happy.
