After months of anticipation,eroticism gifs protests, and campaigns, Taiwan made history on Wednesday as the first country in Asia to recognise same-sex marriage.

The ruling panel, made of 14 judges, has ruled that it is unconstitutional to ban same-sex couples from getting married.

Taiwan's government has two years to implement the ruling, failing which same-sex marriages will be allowed to registered anyway.

Efforts to legalise gay marriage in Taiwan quickly gained momentum after President Tsai Ing-wen, who openly supported marriage equality, came to power last May.

Pro-gay marriage rallies took place in the many weeks leading up to the court ruling, with similar gatherings by those who were against same-sex unions.

The landmark case was brought forward by equal rights activist Chi Chia-wei, after the government rejected his and his long-time partner's application to get married in 2013.

He had told news agency AFP that he was "100% confident" that the ruling would go in his favour.

"Taiwan has become a sophisticated society. Our marriage system and regulations should also evolve with time," he said.

No other region in Asia has yet to legalise same-sex marriage.
