Gay Marriage Should Be Banned

This paper will be fighting against gay marriage, and explaining why it is wrong. Why is it gay marriage shouldn’t be allowed in the U.S or any other country it is legal in? There are many reasons why gay marriage should be illegal. Gay marriage should have never been made legal in the U.S. Gay marriage should be illegal because it’s unnatural, it’s against some religions, and it can affect other people.

Opponents believe that same sex marriage is not right and you should be ashamed to be that way. While proponents say same homosexual couples should be able to publicly celebrate their commitment in the same way as heterosexual couples do. (pro-con,1) Many gay and lesbian couples want to marry because they are in love! Just because someone loves the same sex, does not mean they are different or love any different then heterosexuals. In fact, the Family Research Council shows statistics that gay and lesbians couples are proven to last longer and that they are much happier then heterosexual couples. (pro-con) They want to honor their relationship in the best way that society has to offer. They are making a public commitment to stand with each other in good times and bad, they are prepared to go through the joys and challenges life brings

Gay marriage has slowly become a significant factor amongst individuals of today’s society. On June 26, 2015, it was ruled out by the U.S. Supreme Court that gay marriage was now legal. The first thing that I thought was that “Wasn’t it already legal in the United States?” Well, apparently no it has not been legalized in the United States! (Dumb me.) The U.S. is known to be a nation of equality and gives everyone the freedom of the speech, but it is actually a nation full of racism, sexism, and homophobias. Our country gives us the freedom to do many things, but to gay couples they don’t have much freedom as others do. We are violating their freedom because we aren’t letting them marry the one they love, so to say that everyone in the U.S. has the freedom to do anything is wrong. Our civil rights and the Constitution give us many liberties. One of our civil liberties is the pursuit of happiness, which many homosexual people are not allowed to chase, but thanks to the new ruling of the U.S. Supreme Court homosexual people are allowed to chase it. They are being looked down at and are feeling ashamed of themselves because of all the cruelty that they are receiving. Homosexual people haven’t been able to fully express themselves until it was legalized for them to fully do so. They have been fighting for the right to be married to their same sex for about a decade now, and they have finally met their goal. #Lovewins.

Some people have unnecessary opinions on other people. One of the strongest arguments that happened recently is gay marriage. Although in America it has been legalized in all fifty states and some of the battle is done, it doesn’t stop all the problems. People who are gay in states that had formerly banned gay marriage are in danger. There are those who so strongly object to same sex marriage that they could take action by harming those who benefit. Then there is the whole “people can choose to be gay”, and religion aspect to it.

“We’re here, we’re queer, get over it.” In 1990, these words, shouted and displayed proudly on signs waved by the activist group, Queer Nation, were revolutionary. Never, not since the Stonewall Riots, had non-straight, non-cis people been so vocal about their existence and demanded acceptance – something that straight people take for granted on a daily basis. However, in the years since the Riots, LGBT activism has become much more mainstream, no longer whispered about behind closet doors or something to be wholly ashamed of. Gay marriage is legal in all 50 United States, something that has been fought for since the conception of the LGBT movement. In fact, gay couples are routinely being featured on popular television and other forms of media. Some might say that in 2016, the dreams of the rioters in Stonewall have been realized. Marriage rights and the spotlight on nighttime television; equality seems to truly be right on the horizon.

Gay marriage is a topic that is widely discussed and debated similar to racism or women’s rights, but now that gay marriage is legal people are still trying to ban their freedom statewide. All American couples deserve decent health care, spousal death benefits, and all other privileges afforded through marriage. Same sex unions should not be different from heterosexual marriages.

Gay marriage is in fact a controversial topic that many people feel strongly about. I believe that gay marriage should be legalized without being penalized by people who disagree with it. I will, within reason, explain to you why gay marriage should be legalized and argue against Karlee’s essay about why gay marriage shouldn’t be legalized.

Sam Smith, George Takei, and Ellen Degeneres: what do all three of these celebrities have in common? On June 26 of 2015, they could all legally get married in any state in America. On June 26 of 2015, gay marriage was legalized in all fifty states of the United States. The Supreme Court issued their five to four ruling favor to make gays all over America completely ecstatic. In May of 2004, Massachusetts was the first state in America to legalize gay marriage. The final state to legalize gay marriage was Texas in June 2015 (“Facts at a Glance”). Out of the 320 million citizens in the United States, almost four percent of those citizens identify as homosexual and thirty seven percent do not agree with the legalization of gay marriage (“LGBT Percentage Highest in D.C., Lowest in North Dakota”). To help stabilize the disagreement between pro-gay marriage and anti-gay marriage, a compromise could be established. The compromise would include no public displays of affection between heterosexual or homosexual couples and a couple of any sexual orientation cannot adopt a child unless the couple have been married for more than one year.

Imagine that a government purposefully denied over 1,000 rights and benefits from one group of people who haven 't broken any laws, would you support that government? Years ago, homosexuality was unacceptable. Most that were gay hid it from others and did not act upon it. In the United States, same-sex couples are denied legal marriage. Gay marriage in the United States is a big conflict nowadays and we as the people have to do something to fix it. We need to fight for equal rights guaranteeing marriage rights to same sex couples.The fight for the allowance of same-sex marriages has been a long process, and just recently the issue is coming more into the light of current politics. In a country where there is separation between church and

First off I would like to tell you the argument side against gay marriage and why people do not like it and don’t want to see it legal. People that think gay marriage is so wrong usually goes off of three things. First is usually the religious side and debates on whether god wants it to be that way and how there are raised is also a factor in the religious side. Second they argue that if adopted a kid or kids that it would mentally hurt the child and could cause damage having parents that are gay and not having both a mother and a father. Third is the people either just don’t want to see it or its against everything, this would also combined with the tradition reasons and complaints. this is where people come up with all the reasons why it should be illegal. Most of those reasons can be hurt full and sometimes make no sense. To people that are gay all this comes as an offence

isn’t gay or called names such as “faggot,” simply because their sexual orientation, why? If

Americans want freedom and equality, that is the main desire of just about every citizen. Most of society will say they support equal rights for all citizens. But as soon as the topic of equal rights for homosexuals, people become uncomfortable and uneasy, not knowing which opinion is right and wrong and right. Surprisingly the majority of Americans voted for the Constitutional Amendment, which puts a ban on gay marriage. This amendment entitles to equal rights to the gay community, ending toleration of discrimination in jobs, rights protecting gays from hate crimes,rights allowing advancement in government. However, the concept of gay marriage is still not

An outstanding citizen who pays their taxes, serves their community and abides by the law deserves the rights of an American; however, not all citizens are afforded equal rights. Gays and lesbians are consistently denied rights that are typically taken for granted by the average American. Specifically, gay and lesbian couples are denied the right to marry even if they are outstanding citizens. They are held at an unfair disadvantage solely because of their sexual orientation. This discrimination must stop, because gay and lesbian couples are law-abiding citizens too, who should be afforded the same rights as heterosexual couples. Marriage is about love and commitment; this means that since we are all human, we all deserve the right to be married. Many people disagree, however, but marriage between homosexuals cannot damage the marriage between heterosexuals. It is also true that if heterosexual couples that can’t have kids can get married than there should be no arguments that say homosexual people cannot get married because they cannot have children. Some people fail to believe that gay marriage is protected by the US Constitution 's commitments to liberty and equality, but because homosexuals are not any less human, they deserve to be married just as much as heterosexual people. Because homosexuals cannot damage the sanctity of marriage, deserve the rights protected by the constitution, and do not deserve to be denied marriage because of their lack of reproduction,

Up until about ten years ago the thought of same-sex marriage in the United States was taboo and predominately looked at as wrong. This was only dreamt about for many yet over the decades it has become more and more a reality each day. In American society today they 're 35 States where gay marriage is legal and only 15 where it is not. Despite the number of states on board, the gay community still doesn 't have the same rights as heterosexuals. In most cultures, the LGBTQ community can 't adopt or marry, and a lot of religious still oppose homosexuality. Although the gay rights movement is extremely popular, should there be limits? Can homosexuals be just as good parents as heterosexual parents? Is it right for a child to grow up with

In discussions of gay marriage one controversial issue has been whether or not it should be legalized. On the one hand, some people argue that gay marriage should not be accepted in our society. On the other hand, some people believe that gay marriage should be legalized. Others even maintain that gay marriage is not a problem, and we should respect the preferences of everyone. My personal view is that gay marriage is not a big issue because we are in a free country, where everyone has to respect the preferences of each other, and does not matter the sex preference because we are all the same.
