Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) rights in Argentina are the most advanced in South America, following the legalisation of same-sex marriage, that also includes full adoption rights, on 15 July 2010. Upon legalising gay marriage, Argentina became the first country in Latin America, the second in the Americas, and the tenth in the world to do so.
