Taiwanese courts had declared that not allowing same-sex couples to wed violated the country’s constitution and politicians had been given two years to amend the laws. However as opponents of same-sex marriage managed to raise a petition calling for a national vote on the issue, Taiwan’s citezen’s will now go to the polls to determine if the laws will be changed.
