Charlize Theron calls gay marriage ban 'form of apartheid'

Charlize Theron calls gay marriage banSouth Africa-born actress Charlize Theron
thinks US ban on gay marriage is another 'form of apartheid'. The Oscar-winning actress revealed that she was 'bothered' that her adopted country failed to legalise same-sex unions.

Charlize said it was this 'caveman' approach which reminded her of her native country's past apartheid laws, which marked a distinctive line between whites and non-whites. "I don't like living in an elitist world, it bothers me. I don't want to be part of an elitist sexual preference,” Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

“It bothers me, maybe it's because I come from a country where I lived under apartheid but this is a form of apartheid and I don't want to be a part of that. My ability to get married is a piece of me that I wish I could give to somebody who it would mean so much to. We should all have the chance. It's just so caveman, I can't believe we're still talking about it," she added.
