NEW YORK STATE LEGALIZES GAY MARRIAGE!

It's Been 40 Years Since the Stonewall Rebellion, a photo by funfotoguy2 on Flickr.

42 years after the Stonewall uprising in my hometown, New York City, the New York State Legislature has legalized same sex marriage. Marriage equality is a reality in New York. If you are a gay New Yorker, whether or not you ever want to get married, IT'S YOUR RIGHT TO DO SO if you so choose. Thank you Governor Cuomo for your leadership. Thank you President Obama for setting the tone. Thank you to everyone who stayed at the capital all week long to throw their strong support behind marriage equality!

YES, YES, YES!!!!!!!!!!!
