Since 1989 there has been a steady increase in the number of countries that allow for civil partnership to exist. It has been and still is a constant fight for people that belong to the LGBTQ+ community to gain equal right to a heterosexual couple. In this specific article, we will see how two countries that are relatively homophobic by international standards have created laws that allow for civil partnership but do not grant equal or fair rights regarding the adoption of children.
