Greece’s parliament is poised to vote Thursday on a controversial bill to legalize same-sex marriage, which would include new parental rights for LGBTQ couples.
They live in a house with a courtyard, a home Katerina describes as “full of toys, books, paintings, and musical children’s voices.”
According to current Greek law, because gay couples cannot jointly have children, they do not have access to sperm banks, in vitro fertilization, surrogacy or other assisted reproduction therapies.
In the weeks leading up to the vote, the issue of same-sex marriage and parenting has become a contested subject of debate across Greek media.
There are almost daily op-eds in the country’s largest magazines and newspapers from lawyers, psychologists and LGBTQ parents, arguing in favor of gay marriage.
Last weekend, hundreds protested against the bill in Athens’ central Syntagma square, with speeches from various hard-line religious groups and the leader of the Christian conservative party Victory in attendance.
