Tokyo Disneyland is an odd place to make a political statement, but the theme park now hosts same-sex wedding ceremonies.
When a lesbian couple tied the knot there at a commitment ceremony in its Cinderella Castle in 2012, what was dubbed Japan's first gay wedding had Mickey and Minnie in attendance as celebrants, all decked out in wedding finery.
At first Disneyworld had balked over what is always a critical issue: What to wear? The couple was asked if one of them could wear a dress and the other a tuxedo — but in the end they both got to wear dresses.
