Happy 10-year anniversary of gay marriage being legalised in the UK

Yes, it’s only been legal since 2014. It hasn’t been that long. Don’t take anything for granted, and don’t think that your rights will never be taken away again once they’re given. They are subject to change.

#happy pride 🌈#anniversary #gay marriage #uk #british things #10 years man. that law isn’t even teenage years old yet #wishing everyone a very gay holiday season #gay #lgbtqia #lgbtq community #the alphabetti spaghetti #keep fighting #fun fact: my mom was born in ‘69 only 2 years after sex between 2 men over 21 and in private was decriminalised #this stuff is all so recent it blows my mind that people don’t understand how new and fragile our rights still are #of course ppl in their 50s are still homophobic. they grew up in a world where being gay was literally ILLEGAL. I don’t blame them.#that’s just how they grew up. it wasn’t normal to be gay. imagine if cocoaine & heroin would be legalised today.#you still wouldn’t find it normal and would need time to adjust or might never adjust to the new normal.
