In a previous post I suggested that the US and Australia were aberrations on the issue of same-sex marriage in developed capitalist countries. My info on the US was clearly out of date - I thought only a handful of liberal states had same-sex marriage. Joseph Catron has brought me up-to-scratch. I'm (pleasantly) surprised to see that about three-quarters of the states have same-sex marriage and same-sex marriages are recognised by the federal government. I hadn't really paid attention to US developments in the past two-three years, so I'd missed the fact that 2013 and 2014 saw really big increases in the number of states which now have same-sex marriage.
