Same Sex Rights

People should have their own choice of whom to have love and affection for. Even though same sex relationships and marriage are looked upon as being unmoral I don’t think it should matter to others. According to the dictionary definition of marriage it states, “The social institution under which a man and woman establish their decision to live as husband and wife by legal commitments, religious ceremonies, etc”. Why does it have to be between a male and a female? I am very sure that two partners of the same sex could still establish their own decisions, make commitments, and live like a successful family. People who oppose same sex marriages say that the couple will not be able to raise kids even if they are adopted. This is no fact because children still do well in homes where they are nurtured and loved regardless of the parent’s genders. Both same sex partners should have same rights as a married couple of a male and a female so in the long run they can get ownerships and insurances under both partners’ names. Who is the government to come into all this and ban same sex marriages? However, some states are slowly getting their rights but this should have never been a big issue to begin with. Feelings are feelings and no one can control whom they have emotions for.

  1. I agree with this post. Who are we to judge who we are attracted to and fall in love with? Why do people look down on 2 females holding hands together and God forbid they have a child. What is so wrong with that. I just don't understand why the government will not allow same sex marriages. Love is love it really shouldn't be looked down upon, but I guess people get uncomfortable with things that they are not used to. Its sad and I wish we were able to be who we are and not be held back!

  2. I must say i completly agree with this post as well. I beleive that we all are supposed to have the same rights as other individuals and if that mean same sex marriage i am all for it. Who are we to say no to someone about love. No one has the right to tell you who you are allowed to love and who your not. I understand that some people, religiously, do not bleeive in this, so there allowed to judge? No everyone lives their own life and should be allowed to love whoever they choose.

  3. I couldn't agree more. Frankly, it sickens and amazes me that people can oppose something which really has no direct negative effect on them and which would bring about happiness for the people it involves. Regardless of any excuse you can present, opposing homosexuality is nothing more than simple bigotry, every bit as abhorrent as racism.

  4. I agree that People should have the right to love whom they want to love but God does forbid same sex. Also some children get confuse seeing that they have two mommys or two daddys. I dont think it set a good example for our young youth today.

  5. people should have the choice about their sexuality and they should be accepted as they are. No one has the right to carry critism about the way someone choose to live they should have ability to decide the way they want to live and if they want a child would n`t it be could to have two father or two mom that means their is quadruple the love an heterosexual couple gives to their children.

  7. This same sex relationship thing is gone to far as it is. When do we say enough is enough? Denying gay mirage is a way for the government to keep the nonsense under control. Its enough that we have to see it in our movies and sometimes in restaurants, but now in our churches. I mean what preacher would marry them. I say protect the minds of our children and do not expose them to same sex families. I think this raises to many questions for the mind of the youth. Also, a lot of social embarrassment amongst their peers.
