Aussie Lesbian Politician: No Gay Marriage!

It seems you can’t count on Lesbian politicians to support gay rights down in Australia!  Oh no, openly gay Minister for Climate Change  –  Penny Wong  says she completely  agrees with her party’s opposition to same sex marriage. Yep, that’s right, an openly lesbian politician doesn’t want equality and doesn’t want gay marriage!

The Australian Labor politician told Aussie TV Network 10  ”On the issue of marriage I think the reality is there is a cultural, religious, historical view around that which we have to respect,” today.

“The party’s position is very clear that this is an institution that is between a man and a woman.” and she said that she supports the party view.   Wong, is first openly homosexual cabinet minister in an Australian government and although she said she was proud of what the party had achieved in recognising the value and importance of same sex relationships,  she doesn’t believe in gay marriage.
