I was explaining a situation in my family to my friend from Spain. This is what I told him:
"My mom's partner's brother died (my mom is gay), and so it's been a rough couple of days at mom's house." And he asked me to repeat what I said. So I explained it again- this time in Spanish- and he said, "Oh, your mom's brother in law. In Spain, gay people just get married like straight people. So it would be the same inlaw relationships as in straight marriages."
