As part of her 144 pledges to the French people, anti-mass migration Front National presidential candidate Marine Le Pen has said she will abandon gay marriages in favour of civil partnerships.
Earlier this month after holding her campaign launch in Lyon, Ms Le Pen talked about her 144 pledges to the French people, many of which are against globalism and the power of the European Union. Pledge number 87 speaks to her conservative supporters and rejects the idea of gay marriage which has been legal in France since 2013, but would allow for civil partnerships, law firm Marilyn Stowe claims.

That’s what we should have done here.
I’m morally opposed to gay marriage and also morally opposed to The State - in the USA, France, or elsewhere - dictating the legal terms of interpersonal relationship contracts. Those terms should be written by the two people in a relationship and be legally binding only upon them.
This woman has more balls than most of the GOP.
Yes, I believe she does.

The French people are opposed to changing traditional marriage, this should help her in the election.
Here is a link to a thesaurus entry giving synonyms for “courage”. Please consider using one of these words instead of the vulgar word I keep seeing here on FR. We ladies do not need to be subjected to that crass term referring to a man’s genitalia.

Oh oh. This is going to cost Soros some big bucks. He’ll be paying the French “protesters” now.
Yep.

I applaud you! Thanks!
Thank you.
“...two people in a relationship...”
Why are you discriminating and limiting it to ONLY two people? Why not allow three people in a legal relationship? How about a mother and son relationship? How about two bisexual men in a legal relationship with two bisexual woman?
Eventually, the entire premise because impossible to defend. How does society or children benefit by the selfish decisions of the parents?
Maybe, but NOT including this fraud.
At this point in my life, I just want to be left the hell alone, protected from random explosions, treated equally under the law and taxed less.
