My recent engagement inspired me to write about marriage this week. It’s an exciting time for me and the GLBT community in general. The progress made this year has been staggering.

• Recognition in the President’s inaugural address
• The first professional athletes in major sports to come out
• Gaining federal marriage rights.

When I saw this article, I thought it would be the perfect ending to this week.  And I have to agree; 2013 has become The Greatest Year in Gay Rights History.
