Parliament legalized gay civil unions
The same-sex couples will be able to formalise their relationships from 1 January 2010
The final vote was 64 against the bill, and 110 in favour, reports the Associated Press.
“We are living in the 21st century and I’m very glad this step is being taken today,” said Justice Minister Claudia Bandion-Ortner on Friday.
While the new bill will give gay couples access to legal rights like a pension if one partner dies, it also formally bans the adoption of children or artificial insemination for same-sex couples.
And unlike straight couples, gay couples will not be able to record their unions at the civil registry office, but with another authority instead.

Help, please! For half a year already I am alone and seek gay partner. After my last guy left me, I lost hope and feel frustrated living alone. I can do oral sex perfectly to all who can understand appeals of my soul. Write me using this email address, I live in Saratov district of Russia. Please don’t send insults, because to be gay is private decision and state of soul.
Помогите, пожалуйста! ищу уже пол года себе половинку.
После того как последний парень меня бросил уже сил нет жить одному.
Умею отлично делать минет всем, кто готов откликнуться на крик души, просьба отписаться на почту
