40 same sex Brazilian couples wed ahead of Bolsonaro’s inauguration

About 40 gay couples got married in downtown Sao Paulo, tying the knot partly out of fear that the new administration of President-elect Jair Bolsonaro could restrict same sex marriage after his inauguration on January 1. Bolsonaro has attracted worldwide criticism for his controversial views, including on LGBT and women's rights. In a 2011 interview with Playboy magazine, Bolsonaro said he “would be incapable of loving a homosexual son.”
