Sihanouk Backs Gay Marriage
See how TV corrupts our morals?
A representative of the Khmer Rouge was unavailable for comment. A caller was instead directed to the offices of the League for Worldwide Moral Clarity, where a receptionist said one of its members would return the phone call once Good finished slaughtering Evil.
After watching television images of gay marriages in San Francisco, the 81-year-old monarch [Norodom Sihanouk] has decided that single sex weddings should be allowed in Cambodia too.
He expressed his views in a hand written message on his website which has proved extremely popular in Cambodia.
The king said that as a "liberal democracy", Cambodia should allow "marriage between man and man... or between woman and woman."
He said he had respect for homosexual and lesbians and said they were as they were because God loved a "wide range of tastes."
