Love Letters: Adam and Mark

The opponents of marriage equality have claimed that the survey on marriage equality is about everything from education programs, to freedom of speech, to fighting political correctness.

We know that the call for equality is simply just recognising the love between two people, and their desire the formalise that commitment before their friends and families.

As we fight for the right to be able to get married to our loved ones, we’re sharing stories of LGBTI couples, and we want you to send us your story, like many couples have already done.

Meet Adam and Mark.

Who are you?

Mark and Adam.

How did you meet?

Grindr.

How long have you been a couple?

Four years and six months.

What’s your favourite thing about each other?

Adam: I love Mark’s boundless kindness and gentle soul, and his beautiful blue eyes.

Mark:  I love Adam’s ability to make me feel safe just by being around, his down to earth nature and bizarre sense of humour.

What has been a big moment in your relationship?

We are in the process of buying a house together.

Why do you want to see marriage equality in Australia?

So that we can stand in front of our friends and family and affirm our love and commitment to each other.

How do you foresee your wedding day?

An intimate ceremony with our families and friends, ideally by the seaside.
