Slight corrections concerning Deutsche Presse Agentur (dpa) news:
although Norway and Denmark have LG marriage laws, same does NOT 
apply to Sweden. Only some co-habiting laws include same-sex couples
in Sweden. Sweden, as well as Finland from the Nordic countries are
preparing a full set of registration of same-sex partnerships, which
indeed do allow same marriage rights as the laws for heterosexual
couples. Only exception is the right to adopt children which the law
would not cover. Finnish Parliament is however considering to grant
the adoption rights to the LG couples as well.
