Argentina's Senate is debating a proposal to legalise gay marriage.
The country's Chamber of Deputies has already approved same-sex marriage and has now sent the legislation to the Senate for approval.
The law, which would also allow same-sex couples to adopt, has met with fierce opposition from the Catholic Church and other religious groups.
Thousands protested outside Congress as debates took place inside.
