When same gender marriage was passed last year in Argentina, the GL groups there in the wake of their happiness over its passage and being signed into law July 21 by President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner uttered a bitterly familiar phrase to the transpeople left behind legislatively.

We've heard it said over and over in the United States and Canada but have seen them fail repeatedly to live up to it:  We'll come back for you.

Looks like the Argentine GL groups meant what they said.
