I declear the 26 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 3: question resolved in the affirmative. 27 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 5: And that is the Speaker of the House. It is 28 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 5: I'm telling you that is the Yeah, that was only 29 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 5: a couple of years ago. Now, obviously we're all pretty 30 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 5: progressive people and we are all very glad that gay 31 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 5: marriage is something that Australia hasn't can be proud of. 32 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 5: It was really important for our family, not actually at 33 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 5: the time, but as in the years since. My brother 34 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 5: has come out as gay and I just think it's 35 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 5: I would be so ashamed if that vote didn't go through, 36 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 5: and if we voted the other way, and for him 37 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 5: to live in a country that has all the same 38 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 5: rights as me and my siblings and all his peers, 39 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 5: I think that's just fantastic. And it was a really 40 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 5: important moment. It probably came too late in this country, 41 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 5: but I'm glad that it did, yeah, the whole world. 42 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 2: So at the same time, meanwhile, over in England, we 43 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 2: were it was all the plans of us moving out 44 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 2: here and going through vise replications, and we were because 45 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 2: it seem to be so tight in the run up 46 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 2: to it, and like, surely they're not going to vote 47 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 2: against it, and I know it's people's but just in 48 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 2: this day and age. It seems so cruel and mean. 49 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 2: You couldn't understand how a country which is so fair 50 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:11,959 Speaker 2: that they would vote against it. But it was a 51 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 2: huge thing with the whole world was looking at Australia. 52 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 2: It was a real test for who Australia thinks you 53 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 2: are in this modern day and place. 54 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 5: And it seems like for me, it definitely seemed like 55 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,639 Speaker 5: a no brainer, like it really doesn't affect the people 56 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 5: that it doesn't affect No one's really. 57 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 3: Business, isn't it. 58 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 2: People choose to live their life and a loving relationship exactly. 59 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 4: I felt like it was our coming of age, like 60 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 4: we finally caught up with the rest of the world 61 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 4: and got a clue that gay people shouldn't be prejudiced 62 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 4: because of their orientation. No. 63 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 2: And also there are so many people down generations that 64 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 2: lived in real, real shame and guilt. And in my 65 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 2: family where there's an uncle i've never met. He was 66 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 2: gay and this would have been in the sixties and 67 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 2: seventies and his dad, my granddad is no longer around anymore, 68 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 2: found out he was going throughout the house. 69 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 3: I've never met this uncle. She just ran away. 70 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 2: We heard that he's somehow made it over to America 71 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 2: and so many families without those stories about family members 72 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 2: that it wasn't okay and it needs to be okay now. 73 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 4: And the joy that you missed in not having him 74 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 4: in your life simply because of that. 75 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 3: How silly. 76 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 4: But you know there's families still that will disown children 77 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 4: in this day and age. 78 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, there's definitely still a long way to go with 79 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 5: homophobia and stigma about it. But it probably is the 80 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 5: best time that we've had in recent history for my 81 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 5: brother to live in.
