After watching television images of gay marriages in San Francisco, the 81-year-old monarch has decided that single sex weddings should be allowed in Cambodia too. He expressed his views in a hand written message on his website which has proved extremely popular in Cambodia. The king said that as a &#8220;liberal democracy&#8221;, Cambodia should allow &#8220;marriage between man and man&#8230; or between woman and woman.&#8221; He said he had respect for homosexual and lesbians and said they were as they were because God loved a &#8220;wide range of tastes.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><\/a>Earlier <a href=\"..\/Blogfiles\/2004_02_15_WeekArchive.php#'107730948728528126'\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cambodia&#8217;s King Norodom Sihanouk has shown that advancing years are no barrier to an open mind and liberal attitude.
