Clearly, the world isn’t as pro-gay marriage as Australia’s establishment media. With only 14 of the world’s 195 nation states allowing same-sex partners to marry, your average “gay marriage” state belongs to an experimental minority. We’re talking eccentric social-engineering islands. Together, they make up the seven per cent.
So your average gay-marriage state looks like…? In short, the sociological answer is…very white. Such nations tend to be relatively small, overwhelmingly Caucasian, and frighteningly bureaucratic. Think, legalistic Belgium for a good example.
Nevertheless, media elites boast that gay-marriage nations are “ahead of history,” implying that white-majority nations are morally superior, even inherently enlightened (a curious position for self-styled multiculturalists to hold).
So, are they? Are the Belgians more evolved than, say, the Japanese, even though Japan can boast of lower separation/divorce rates and fewer designer fatherless families?
For the record, there are no gay-marriage Asian states and only one in Africa (South Africa) where the sexist institution of polygamy is legal. Therefore, this does point to a level of establishment media ignorance.
Curiously, same-sex marriage first became legal in the Netherlands on April Fools’ Day of 2001. At the time it was said that marriage-hungry gays would rush to organise massive weddings creating huge pink markets. Or as activist Henk Krol, the editor-in-chief of Gay Krant magazine enthusiastically predicted, “10-15 percent of all marriages in 2001 - more than 10,000 - will be by gay couples.”
Krol was wrong. In fact, around 2,500 gay couples married that year and gay-marriage declined in popularity soon after.

The pro-gay marriage countries won’t be Caucasian majority for long.
Nice post. It’s good to read some positive views now and again, now matter how hopeless things seem. The reality is, homosexual marriage is likely just a fad, not even very popular among homosexuals, and only 7% of countries have it. Most know its a load of crap. Two men cannot marry.
Shut up about your fake gay marriage. Being gay doesn't make you unique and special. You are stupid and boring just like everyone else. So get over yourself and leave me alone.
Right. They’ve underestimated the rise of Christianity and Islam, for one.
Well, “gay marriage” is certainly fake. Guess that’s why Hollywood stars love the idea.
Yeah, many gays think it’s patronising. The Left can’t even recruit enough homosexuals to it.
Same sex marriage isn’t about sex, it’s about marriage. Destroying normal marriage is the goal.
As for the countries in Europe, let's see how marriage redefinition plays out with the growing influence of Islam. Should be fun to watch, by which I mean absolutely bloody and horrifying and not fun in the slightest.
The novelty is wearing off, and there is no societal imperative to keep it going. Not like continuation of the species is at stake with this issue.
