我跟着看了两天,有些辩论的确很精彩,15个参议院,8个反对,7个赞同。

A bill to make Tasmania the first jurisdiction to legalise same-sex marriage appears headed for defeat in the state parliament's upper house, the Legislative Council.
Key undeclared MLCs in the 15-member chamber are coming out against the legislation ahead of a vote later today.
Among them are independent Hobart MLC Adriana Taylor, who said its constitutionality was unclear and that she was not persuaded by the decision of other countries to approve gay marriage.
"Because others are doing it is not a good enough reason for me," Ms Taylor said.

Another MLC, Liberal Vanessa Goodwin, said she had legal and constitutional concerns, although she did not oppose the bill on moral or religious grounds.
Legal objections are also expected to weigh heavily with a third undeclared MLC yet to speak — Jim Wilkinson.
Support for the change came from Devonport independent Mike Gaffney, who said he was unconcerned by the prospect of any constitutional challenge.
"Gays, when finding a partner, just want to ask the question: 'Will you marry me?' not 'Will you sign a deed of relationship?' "
Premier Lara Giddings made a last-ditch bid to urge the reform using Twitter. "Social norms change," she tweeted. "Once interracial marriages were condemned. Single mothers had babies forcibly adopted. People thought they were right.
"Today our Legislative Council have an opportunity to move our state forward and not be on the wrong side of history."

同性婚姻提案上周被澳洲众议院和参议院纷纷以绝大优势否决。
在塔斯马尼亚试图州立法,下议院通过,不过今天被上议院否决。

同志们请不要灰心,不达目的,我们誓不罢休!
