Is it safe for a gay couple to marry and live in UK, for eg in London? Can a gay couple adopt children there too?...How to do so?

In the urban areas it's pretty safe in the rural ones it can be difficult.
Gay couples cannot marry - instead they are allowed a Civil Partnership (same rights, though).
Gays can adopt - in fact an anti-discrimination law has just been passed which caused the Catholic Church to threaten to close its adoption agencies - how to do so? You apply to an agency, they perform rigorous investigations on you and your suitability as an adoptive parent and then you wait....

I think that people in the UK are more open minded then ever before and at least 4 people I know have attended a gay civil rights union/wedding so I believe it is very safe for gay couples to go about their everyday lives in peace, esp in Old Compton Street/Soho in London and not forgetting Brighton of course ! Adopting children I am not so sure about, sorry...

Yes. Gay couples are just splendid. Amazing fashion sense too.

why should they be allowed to adopt children when their action of being gay is unnatural?These kids should not be allowed to be adopted by such couples.Children's right should be respected when it comes to serious issues like this.Let them adopt 18 and above.
