knot
What opportunity is available to homosexual - and unmarried heterosexual - couples in France, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Portugal, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, Luxembourg and in the Spanish regions of Catalunya, Aragona and Navarra (and will shortly be in the United Kingdom, Switzerland and Croatia), but not in Italy?
The screams you can hear in the background are from Dr Bitful going "Nooo, he's mentioned Italy… he's going to rant for a week now! Seek cover while you can".
Next February 14th in Rome people are called to ask the government to recognize the rights of unmarried couples who wish their unions to be acknowledged, by trying to break the current record for the largest number of couples kissing in the same place at once.
Break your piggy bank and get flights now. Treat yourself to a romantic kiss in a dreamlike setting. Bring your beloved along - or find yourself a local partner. And rescue a crumbling democracy while you get it off.

Ciao. Io difficilmente potrņ muovere il mio culo fino a roma ma se posso fare qualcosa per questa causa, tanto ovvia quanto giusta, non esitare a contattarmi.

Oh dear, I'm in your links: thanks! Perhaps I'll be there, on that day. If I'll do, I will contact you by e-mail, ok? See ya!

Unfortunately I won't be able to go to Rome - unless I start walking now (return trip from London currently unaffordable)

Sweetie, there are a lot of cheap flights to Ciampino. And free accomodation in my place! (read - You are invited - of course). Kisses Linguafranca. Darling, you are great, thanks for the link, I'll reciprocate immediately.
