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My info on the US was clearly out of date - I thought only a handful of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.
