Bed, where are thou?
Just stumbled across a couple of interesting pieces of news :
Dominique Voynet et Yves Cochet en tête au premier tour des primaires des Verts pour la présidentielle.
More importantly, the Belgian Senate has ruled that same-sex couples could now adopt following the same guidelines as opposite-sex couples. There's an interesting (though short and not at all comprehensive) article about it in French over at Le citron vert. Belgian therefore joins Spain, Scandinavian countries and the UK in officially accepting that same-sex couples can and will have children and that what matters is providing these children and their families with legal protection.
*cuddles Belgium, and slaps France* I still can't believe our country's taking so fucking long to take any decision on LGBT issues. It's so pathetic and so French. Tsk.
