Abstract
Over thirty writers, a mix of activist and reflective voices, explore the legacy of the 2004 changes to the Australian Marriage Act, which now states (and which must be stated at every wedding) 'marriage is between a man and a woman'. Foreword by Justice Michael Kirby. This chapter focuses on a discourse analysis of over 3,000 same sex attracted and gender questioning 14-21 year old Australian young people's reflections on marriage and Australian laws from an online survey in 2010.
