Gay marriage is a topic that is so often discussed by those with highly diverse opinions. As some people agree with those of the same sex pursuing marriage, others do not seem to feel the same way. This fact can apply to individuals as well as entire countries. Several of these individuals and countries originally agreed with the subject of gay marriage as others were required to be forced due to the fact that their ban on gay marriage was decided as unconstitutional. Same-sex marriage is a controversial issue in today's world where some choose to agree with the decision of homosexual people and some choose to oppose it, all doing so usually for different reasons.

“The freedom to marry has long been recognized as one of the vital personal rights

Homosexual marriage is one of the old but controversial issues around the world. Compared to the past, it seems to become a more open debate among people. At the same time, people seem to be more swayable than before, but towards the gay marriage, different voices have still been hovering in the air. Gay people and their supporters have been striving for their rights to get married legally, while others who against gay marriage have never stopped deterring it.

On May 7, 2011, a young man named Tom Bridegroom fell to his death from a rooftop, leaving behind his devastated partner of six years, Shane Bitney Crone. Tom’s family had never accepted his relationship with Shane; in fact, members of Tom’s family attacked and threatened him when he told them he was gay. Because Shane and Tom could not legally marry, Shane was not entitled to any information regarding Tom’s death, memorial service, or burial arrangements (Crone). Tom’s family was able to move Tom’s body without notifying Shane, to keep Shane away from the memorial service, and to remove from Tom and Shane’s shared home any personal belongings that Tom’s family determined had belonged to Tom. Despite building a life together over the

The argument is much deeper then weather or not they should be married because they share a home together. If couples are paying taxes to build roads and help public schools, they should be afforded the same rights the heterosexual couples have. This was the argument used in the Baker v. Vermont. In the Baker v. Vermont court case, “gay and lesbian couples had argued that they were denied the protection of more than 300 laws as a result of not being allowed to marry.” Homosexuals are finally suing the state because they are not receiving protection under the laws of state strictly because they are gay. The Vermont House of Representatives voted in favor of a same-sex civil union bill after the case resolved. This shows that looking at the matter as a legal issue, it is evident that gay couples are not regarded equally in the eyes of the law, and that the first steps to fix this social injustice are just now being taken, however, the vote is very close. Same-sex civil unions are a basis for nation-wide legal recognition of same-sex relationships. These same-sex civil marriages are demonstrating that the principals of “marriage” and the rights an American deserves, regardless of gender, race or sexual orientation, can be respected.

You walk into class and see "pop quiz" written on the board. Everyone sits down and the bell rings for class to begin. The teacher makes an announcement and says 'everyone that is failing my class does not have to take this quiz everyone else grab your pencils.' How do the rest of you feel? How is that fair? How does a grade make me different from the other people? You probably feel discriminated. How does a grade decipher what I get and don't get in life? So how should a gender decipher who you can and can't get married too? Same sex marriage has been illegal in many states for awhile now. Very few states have legalized it. Many many people believe it is not right. Then you have the other people that believe gender should

An important aspect is the entry of the marriage between people of the same sex. This phenomenon began in the Netherlands in 2001 and spread throughout much of northern Europe, generating great controversy and debate not only locally but globally. The controversy surrounding homosexual marriage has been a constant in the panorama of what is considered unfair or discriminatory. In this sense, we have found public opinion divided between extreme defenders of gay equality and staunch opponents of this position. however, equal marriage must be legal in order to promote equality, family stability and freedom of religion.

Not only does denying same sex unions deem gay and lesbian families as not worthy, it prevents them from legal protections, rights and obligations valued as lawful by states to support the respectability and success of family. Per the authors in Introducing Public Administration, because policy making involves so many aspects, so many players, and so many issues, it is difficult to grasp it as one single thing (Shafritz, 2013). Due to the biblical, societal and constitutional implications that are involved in making gay marriage legal, it offers open dialogue for what is legal in the eye of the law for something that has not always been constitutional for decades. Denying legitimate rights to same sex couples and families in areas such as: child protections, economic security, health and wellbeing, death, retirement security, divorce and privacy and conflicts of

Gay Rights has been improving in a positive way over time. Today, the idea of homosexuals having certain rights is controversial and brings up different perspectives of how gay people should be treated. Laws had been made for them. A positive change was the outcome of homosexuals fighting for their rights. Homosexuals are treated differently than before. That does not mean they do not get hate it just means more people tolerate them. More people are accepting of them today than they were before. Gay Rights have become a cultural movement in our society because of the detail that relates to the whole concept of tolerance.

Gay marriage is a very talked about topic in are country that shouldn’t be ignored. I believe men and women should be able to love freely and not be shamed by it. Marriage is a great factor in the United States. To some people it’s what we live for; is to get married and start a family. To not give everyone the same opportunity to have a happy marriage and family is unlike us. This problem is bringing a lot of hate, the same hate that was used in racial discrimination so why not give gays equal rights like everyone else. Andrew Sullivan wrote a article that shares his experiences of coming out and being accepted. When puberty hit he started to realize he wasn’t the same. He knew that his marriage is not going to be the same as his

Homosexuality has been a sensitive topic and risen a lot of controversial opinions when some states approved same-sex marriage laws. Although same-sex marriage is against the traditional family structure previously established, many people think it has to be dealing with a more equal and integrating focus. Therefore, they think they should be accepted into society and treated with the same opportunities and rights. As a human, the individual seeks mostly the same goal, to build a family. And this goal is set regardless of gender, age, beliefs background and other factors. Since some states have qualified homosexual people to be merited with the same benefits as others; therefore, gay, and lesbian people look forward to having kids after they marry. Leading to the outburst of debating whether same-sex parents are able to raise a good family. A person who is in the LGBT community will never stop fighting for his dream to create their own love nest even when some counterparts do not support the idea of same-sex parenting. Many psychologists, organizations, children, same-sex parents claim that children who are raised by gay or lesbian families, develop as well as those peers who are educated and grew up in a traditional family. On the other hand, some study groups, researchers, Add Health organization, and other adults report that there is high risk for children to suffer from depression, stigma, and does not behave right in the same-sex household. Which leaves people asking

In today’s society, there are many conflicting issues with LGBT relationships. In contrast, there are many positive qualities associated with a multi-parent home. Everyone should have a choice to decide on whom they would like to share their life with. Gay marriage should be legal and a non-punishable offense because it can prevent teenage suicides, more children will be adopted, and people will not feel like second-class citizens.

Today in the United States same-sex marriage has only recently become accepted. Same-sex marriages have been a controversy in the United States for decades and in the past few years the three branches of the United States Government, The Legislative, The Executive, and the judicial branch have played their part in making same-sex marriage common and accepted in America. Many people have fought for the right to marry whom they love and now, because of that hard work the people of the United States can be open and happy with their lives without fear of being judged or tormented by their communities.

Lindsey and Beth, a lesbian couple, have been living together for eleven years. Lindsey conceived two children from a sperm donor. Together, Lindsey and Beth turned their house into a loving home for their two children. One day, on the way home from the grocery store, Lindsey was killed in a tragic car accident. Before Beth could even grasp the situation, the children that she helped raise from birth had been taken away and placed into the care of Lindsey's parents, who never were a part of their lives because they did not accept Lindsey's homosexuality. In addition, the house that Beth and Lindsey lived in for eleven years was taken away from Beth. How did this happen to Beth?

People are born homosexual. If you are homosexual you cannot get married. That idea is ridiculous. On June 26, 2015, the US Supreme Court ruled that the US Constitution guarantees the right for same-sex couples to marry. Marriage is defined as a sacred bond of love between two people. Gay people also feel love therefore, they should be allowed the same rights as everyone else in this country. Homosexuality is an accepted lifestyle nowadays with a proven biological causation. The only thing that should matter in marriage is love and denying them this is a violation of religious freedom.
