BBC News - Gay man and transgender woman wed in Cuba


"A Cuban man and transgender woman have married in what is being seen as the country's first 'gay wedding'.

Same sex marriage is illegal in Cuba, but bride Wendy Iriepa is legally a woman after undergoing one of the first state-sponsored sex changes in 2007.

Her fiance, Ignacio Estrada, is a noted dissident and gay rights activist in Cuba and is also HIV positive."
