Because it generates reactions from interested people.

So one bloke and one woman. So it isn't same sex marriage then. Got it.

Not if the American's passport says male.

Yes and she's a transgender woman apparently. 

So basically, they are a straight couple, role playing as opposite sex ????

 

Shame they are not the same size, as they could get by with 1 set of clothes.

So a 64 year old farang guy marries a Thai woman....So what.....It happens all the time......The only news is the guy is wearing a pink dress..

This is only newsworthy if a man who is now a woman seeks to marry a Thai man, ie, a biological male marrying a biological male.

The laws as they stand now don't stop these two from marriage at all. 

If the Thai government recognizes gender reassignment in the future, I'm going to identify as a woman, my Thai wife will identify as a Thai man - and then we will revisit my immigration status given I'm now a foreign woman in a marriage with a Thai man.  I can't wait!

So you plan on abusing the system by lying then, huh?

The bloke in the pink frock looks like John Cleese.

Must be a Monty Python sketch.

You're mistaking gender identity with sex. It isn't a same sex marriage, because they are members of the opposite sex. The headline should be changed to reflect accuracy: Same gender identity marriage.

It's just a matter of law. I think if her gender said female on his passport she couldn't marry here now, but if it says male, she can.

If I identify as a woman, are you trying to tell me I can't change my mind as often as I like?

Depends on whether (insert pronoun here) was born as a biological male or not.

[Chicksaw]

I hope the next frontier is tripartite marriage. Why not? Why not 3 gay guys, or 1 straight guy and 2 women, or whatever?

 

Many advantages. There's an extra breadwinner in the family. Sex is more varied to say the least. Think about it - what would be the equivalent of boring missionary with three participants? Kids are more secure with the extra guardian. In fact, I can't think of a downside.

 

LET THERE BE EQUAL THREE!!!

It's unusual for you to be silent

It took some time for me to correctly work out the sexes in the initially-not-too-clear story and unfortunately we cannot delete our own comments, hence the quiet and lonely full stop

According to the full OP he is clearly a biological man having children and an ex-wife.

Geeeez  used to be lgbtq.... are they going to go through the whole alphabet? or discover a new alien sex gene?

 

be what you wanna be and i am all for it, but this identifying onesself to all these things is turning into bs ones freedom ends where anothers begins but this is getting too much

 

as for the bride and bride, i hope they get what they wish. people should be able to live and die and give away their estates without all the red tape in today's messed up world

67 sexes and that was 5 years ago....now we are sure above 100. It get very difficult to find the only 1 matching if you want to procreate out of the 100....

Was the marriage just a traditional Thai union or an official marriage with the legalising documents?  Judging from the wedding photos it wasn't the latter.

No. It depends on the gender in the passport regardless.

So not a 'same sex' marriage ... ????

 

Saying, thinking you're a woman, but having a penis, does not make you a female ...

... IMHO

That is so 1990....These days you get canceled, suspended, sued and fired if you think that person which looks like a male, smells like a male and has a penis is a male....
If only we had that when they drafted me to the army.....
