The parliamentary session on the constitutional amendments was in recess until the end of 2015, thus the amendment failed.<sup id="cite_ref-79" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-79"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>79<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Cologne_Germany_Cologne-Gay-Pride-2015_Parade-17a.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/54/Cologne_Germany_Cologne-Gay-Pride-2015_Parade-17a.jpg/220px-Cologne_Germany_Cologne-Gay-Pride-2015_Parade-17a.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="170" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/54/Cologne_Germany_Cologne-Gay-Pride-2015_Parade-17a.jpg/330px-Cologne_Germany_Cologne-Gay-Pride-2015_Parade-17a.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/54/Cologne_Germany_Cologne-Gay-Pride-2015_Parade-17a.jpg/440px-Cologne_Germany_Cologne-Gay-Pride-2015_Parade-17a.jpg 2x" data-file-width="4240" data-file-height="3276" /></a><figcaption>LGBT activists at <a href="/wiki/Cologne_Pride" title="Cologne Pride">Cologne Pride</a> 2015 carrying a banner with the flags of 72 countries where <a href="/wiki/LGBT_rights_by_country_or_territory" class="mw-redirect" title="LGBT rights by country or territory">homosexuality is illegal</a></figcaption></figure> <p>On 7 February 2015, Slovaks voted in <a href="/wiki/2015_Slovak_same-sex_marriage_referendum" title="2015 Slovak same-sex marriage referendum">a referendum</a> to ban same-sex marriage and same-sex parental adoption.<sup id="cite_ref-ABC_80-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ABC-80"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>80<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The result of the referendum was for enacting the ban proposals, with 95% and 92% votes for, respectively.<sup id="cite_ref-81" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-81"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>81<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> However, the referendum was deemed invalid under referendum law because of a low turnout (below 50% requirement).<sup id="cite_ref-82" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-82"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>82<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>On 3 March 2015 the <a href="/wiki/Parliament_of_Slovenia" class="mw-redirect" title="Parliament of Slovenia">Parliament of Slovenia</a> passed a same-sex marriage bill by a 51–28 vote.<sup id="cite_ref-83" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-83"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>83<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> On 20 December 2015, Slovenians <a href="/wiki/2015_Slovenian_same-sex_marriage_referendum" title="2015 Slovenian same-sex marriage referendum">rejected the new same-sex marriage bill</a> by a margin of 63% to 37%. </p><p>In November 2015, the <a href="/wiki/House_of_Representatives_(Cyprus)" title="House of Representatives (Cyprus)">Parliament of Cyprus</a> approved a bill which legalised civil unions for same-sex couples in a 39–12 vote.<sup id="cite_ref-84" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-84"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>84<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> It took effect on 9 December 2015.<sup id="cite_ref-85" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-85"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>85<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-86" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-86"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>86<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>A bill to legalise civil unions for same-sex couples in Greece was approved in December 2015 by its <a href="/wiki/Hellenic_Parliament" title="Hellenic Parliament">Parliament</a> in a 194–55 vote.<sup id="cite_ref-87" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-87"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>87<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The law was signed by the President and took effect on 24 December 2015.<sup id="cite_ref-88" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-88"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>88<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>On 29 April 2016, the <a href="/wiki/L%C3%B8gting" title="Løgting">Parliament of the Faroe Islands</a>, a Danish dependency, voted to extend Danish same-sex marriage legislation to the territory, excluding the possibility to be legally wed in a religious ceremony.

Woltera, A. Zolla, A. Wąska), pojęcie "wspólne pożycie" odnoszone jest wyłącznie do konkubinatu, a w szczególności do związku osób o różnej płci, odpowiadającego od strony faktycznej stosunkowi małżeństwa (którym w myśl art. 18 Konstytucji jest wyłącznie związek osób różnej płci). Tego rodzaju interpretację Sąd Najwyższy, orzekający w niniejszej sprawie, w pełni podziela i nie znajduje podstaw do uznania za przekonywujące tych wypowiedzi pojawiających się w piśmiennictwie, w których podejmowane są próby kwestionowania takiej interpretacji omawianego pojęcia i sprowadzania go wyłącznie do konkubinatu (M. Płachta, K. Łojewski, A.M. Liberkowski).

Pojęcie to zostało jednak dostatecznie i jasno określone we wspomnianym art. 18 Konstytucji RP, w którym jest mowa o małżeństwie jako o związku kobiety i mężczyzny. W piśmiennictwie podkreśla się, że art. 18 Konstytucji ustala zasadę heteroseksualności małżeństwa, będącą nie tyle zasadą ustroju, co normą prawną, która zakazuje ustawodawcy zwykłemu nadawania charakteru małżeństwa związkom pomiędzy osobami jednej płci (vide: L. Garlicki Komentarz do art. 18 Konstytucji, s. 2-3 [w:] Konstytucja Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej. Komentarz, Wydawnictwo Sejmowe, Warszawa 2003). Jest wobec tego oczywiste, że małżeństwem w świetle Konstytucji i co za tym idzie – w świetle polskiego prawa, może być i jest wyłącznie związek heteroseksualny, a więc w związku małżeńskim małżonkami nie mogą być osoby tej samej płci.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=unknown&amp;rft.btitle=Judgment+of+the+Supreme+Administrative+Court+of+Poland+of+25+October+2016%2C+II+GSK+866%2F15&amp;rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.orzeczenia-nsa.pl%2Fwyrok%2Fii-gsk-866-15%2Fsprawy_ubezpieczen_zdrowotnych_ochrona_zdrowia%2F33055d0%2F6.html%3Fq%3D%26_symbol%3D652%26_haslo%3DOchrona%2Bzdrowia%26_sad%3DNaczelny%2BS%25C4%2585d%2BAdministracyjny%26_skarzony%3DPrezes%2BNarodowego%2BFunduszu%2BZdrowia%26_okres%3D2016_10&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3ALGBTQ+rights+in+Europe" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-NSA2018-207"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-NSA2018_207-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://orzeczenia.nsa.gov.pl/doc/8AE25DE4B1">"Judgment of the Supreme Administrative Court of Poland of 28 February 2018, II OSK 1112/16"</a>. <q>art. 18 Konstytucji RP, który definiuje małżeństwo jako związek kobiety i mężczyzny, a tym samym wynika z niego zasada nakazująca jako małżeństwo traktować w Polsce jedynie związek heteroseksualny.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=unknown&amp;rft.btitle=Judgment+of+the+Supreme+Administrative+Court+of+Poland+of+28+February+2018%2C+II+OSK+1112%2F16&amp;rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Forzeczenia.nsa.gov.pl%2Fdoc%2F8AE25DE4B1&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3ALGBTQ+rights+in+Europe" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-208"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-208">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">*<link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFGallo_DPaladini_LPustorino_P2014" class="citation book cs1">Gallo D; Paladini L; Pustorino P, eds.

Uzupełniony tym zwrotem przepis konstytucyjny "miał pełnić rolę instrumentu zapobiegającego wprowadzeniu takiej regulacji do prawa polskiego" (A. Mączyński, Konstytucyjne podstawy prawa rodzinnego, s. 772). Innego motywu jego wprowadzenia do Konstytucji RP nie da się wskazać (szeroko w tym zakresie B. Banaszkiewicz, "Małżeństwo jako związek kobiety i mężczyzny", s. 640 i n.; zob. też Z. Strus, Znaczenie artykułu 18 Konstytucji, s. 236 i n.). Jak zauważa A. Mączyński istotą tej regulacji było normatywne przesądzenie nie tylko o niemożliwości unormowania w prawie polskim "małżeństw pomiędzy osobami tej samej płci", lecz również innych związków, które mimo tego, że nie zostałyby określone jako małżeństwo miałyby spełniać funkcje do niego podobną (A. Mączyński, Konstytucyjne podstawy prawa rodzinnego, s. 772; tenże, Konstytucyjne i międzynarodowe uwarunkowania, s. 91; podobnie L. Garlicki, Artykuł 18, w: Garlicki, Konstytucja, t. 3, uw. 4, s. 2, który zauważa, że w tym zakresie art. 18 nabiera "charakteru normy prawnej").</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=book&amp;rft.btitle=Konstytucja+RP.+Tom+I.+Komentarz+do+art.+1-86&amp;rft.place=Warszawa&amp;rft.pub=C.H.+Beck+Wydawnictwo+Polska&amp;rft.date=2016&amp;rft.isbn=9788325573652&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3ALGBTQ+rights+in+Europe" class="Z3988"></span></li> <li><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFScherpe_JM2016" class="citation book cs1">Scherpe JM, ed.
