This was mentioned as a same-sex marriage but clearly it isn't as the bride is a post op transsexual who is legally female; but apparently it's a first for Cuba.

They're defining

Him as 'gay' because she is TS. So, obviously, she's "still a man" to them.

Love is love.

I just hope parents don't take into their head through this that just finding the right girl for their Gay son will see them married. Vice versa if they have a Gay daughter.

Can't please them all

When I was transitioning my homophobic father did not want to meet my boyfriend so I asked if he wanted to meet my girlfriend, he did not like that option either :)

Sounds like a trainwreck waiting to happen

According to the article, he describes himself as a gay man. I feel sorry for the poor woman, this is likely to go bad for her, unless he turns out to be Bi after all.
