We've come a long way in a few short years when it comes to gay rights. It's been baby steps, but from homosexuality being legalized we progressed to civil unions, and now more recently we've seen the idea of same-sex marriage slowly gaining legality and acceptance around the world. Here are 50 same gender couples who are engaged or married, some of these may surprise you!
Although we're still waiting on many countries around the world to catch up, Great Britain legalized same-sex marriage in 2014, followed a year later by the United States of America. The legal rulings prompted tears of joy, celebrations and, of course, fabulous weddings on both sides of the pond.
Our favorite celebrities are like the rest of us when it comes to falling in love. We fall for who we fall for, and that's the way it is. Plenty of same-sex celebrity couples are taking advantage of their new rights by getting engaged or married.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
