In a setback for LGBT advocates, voters in Taiwan have backed a series of initiatives opposing marriage equality, dealing a major blow to the island's reputation as a rights trailblazer.
A referendum on whether marriage should be recognised only as "the union between one man and one woman" in Taiwan's Civil Code won more than seven million votes on Saturday.

The Coalition for the Happiness of our Next Generation, a "pro-family" group, called the results a "victory of all people who treasure family values".
The conservative group also beat gay rights activists on competing referendums about whether LGBT issues should be compulsory on the school curriculum.
