Various forms of same sex marriage have existed since ancient times. They range from informal but life long and socially accepted same sex domestic relationships to formal, ritualized unions of people of the same sex. Nero is said to have married one of his male slaves.

In modern times, the first same-sex marriage happened just after midnight on April 1, 2001 in the Amsterdam City Hall in the Netherlands. The mayor of Amsterdam married a female couple, Anne-Marie Thus and Helene Faasen, and three male couples. It was broadcast live on Dutch television.

On Sept. 13, 2004, a supreme court judge of Canada ruled that the definition of 'spouse' was unconstitutional and approved the first gay divorce application.

Was jackie gleason gay?

He was married three times. His first marriage ended largely because his first wife suspected he was fooling around and filed for legal separation. He married his second wife 10 days after the divorce from his first wife became final. He married his third wife (the woman his first wife suspected him of fooling around with) less than a month after his second divorce became final.Gleason had two daughters from his first marriage.It seems extremely unlikely that he was gay.

Can same-sex married couples divorce?

Yes if a gay couple is married, they can get a divorce. Gay married couples started getting divorced about 7 months after gay marriage was legalized in Massachusetts. There is no accurate divorce rate in the united states for gay married couples. Note same sex-couples can generally seek a divorce within jurisdictions that have redefined marriage to include same sex couples. In the vast majority of the world, same sex unions have no legal status as marriage, thus, in general, the courts cannot dissolve a union that has no legal existence within their jurisdiction.
