Gay Marriage Vs Same Sex Marriage

The Supreme Court legalized Same Sex Marriage on June 26, 2015. Same Sex Marriage is all the homosexual people in United States now can legally marry. Homosexual people has hard time with their family, people who didn't come out not dare to tell their family, so they will find some who is hetersexual and marry without telling the truth. Once hetersexual person find out about it or homosexual person sick to live with it , they will be divorce. The article “ 10 reasons why Gay Marriage should be legalized” the article stated “More than 50% of married couples in America get divorced. Allowing gays the opportunity to get married will increase marriage rates because less couples will get divorced due to incompatibility or infertility.” We can see from the evidence that half of people in America get divorced. Once they passed the Same Sex Marriage Law, the situation will become better also the percentage of getting divorced would be decrese. American people rejoice with wild excitement not only because this, it also prove that human has improved. To homesexual people is accomplishment of equal rights. The article “ 10 reasons why Gay Marriage should be legalized” the article stated “In the 50's, interracial marriage was illegal. But now, modern society understands this to be an unjust law that denied equal rights to couples who loved each other.” Mind

Gay marriage has been a recent controversy for many reasons. Many people (religious conservatives) believe that same-sex marriage is immoral, sinful, and threatens the traditional structure of a family. But gay and lesbian supporters feel marriage is a right that everyone should have, backed by the Due Process and Equal Protection of the Fourteenth Amendment. It has been proven that the outlook on gay marriage has changed drastically based simply on the fact that younger people had supported it and it just took time to gain enough approval from enough of the country to legalize it. Since most of 18-29 year-olds of 2006 supported same-sex marriage, “two-thirds of Americans think that same-sex marriage will eventually be legal in the United

The rejection of equal marriage rights completely puts a disadvantage on children who are raised by same-sex couples. The lack of support for families with same-sex parents hinders the children within our society as a whole. The lack of acceptance is damaging to children within same-sex families. The legalization of gay marriage helps to address this injustice by supporting the value of families led by same-sex

The question is some how hard to answer but I will do my best in answering to the best of my knowledge. Considering the fact that both values are important in making sure that everybody is happy, I think they should follow the law that requires all businesses to serve everyone regardless of their race, color, national origin, or creed. We are supposed to do what the law says and not what we think. But where it becomes complicated is where that same law gives everyone the freedom to say what they want and also the freedom of religion. In my opinion, I think the business owner were wrong, selling to the lesbian couples doesn’t mean that they’re engaging in the act or anything relating to that. If they law had said that nobody should sale to them it would have been a deferent matter entirely, but since that is not the case nobody should deny them of their right to patronize anybody. If anybody is not comfortable with they law that has been put in place they have the right to take it to the court and not take laws into their own hands by denying people of their right. A right can be given and can also be taken at the same time, therefore, it’s the duty of the government to always decide. The fact that the government have that right make laws doesn’t mean that they can do what they want at the expense of people happiness.

Out of all the thousands of rights, marriage equality; equal acceptance of same-sex marriages; is the biggest controversy. Opposite sex couples believe that gay marriage will harm or destroy marriage all together if it is allowed, because it is not a ‘traditional’ marriage between one male and one female. Only banning same-marriage will destroy marriage and society. Marriage is a keystone of our social order. Studies show that the United States has one of the highest divorce rates when compared to other countries (infogr.am). Allowing gays the privilege to get married will increase marriage rates and less couples will get divorced due to not being attracted to the opposite sex. The Williams Institute on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Law and Public Policy, which has conducted previous studies on same-sex relationships and parenting, collected administrative data on divorce rates between lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender couples from New Hampshire and Vermont. The data found that same-sex couples divorced at an average rate of 1.1 percent annually between the two states, compared with 2 percent annually between heterosexual pairs

Gay couples are fully capable of providing a stable and loving home for children. They are as good of a parent as any heterosexual parents. 22 states have determined this, and other agencies and courts have firmly resolved this, thereby granting gay couples the privilege of adopting children (ACLU, n.d.). All of the research regarding same-sex parents have concluded that children of these couples grew up as successfully as children of heterosexual couples (ACLU, n.d.). There is no evidence that proves children of same-sex parents are at a disadvantage socially, mentally, emotionally, or academically.

According to a peer-reviewed study at the University of Melbourne, children raised by same-sex couples are more efficient than the general population on measures of general health and family unity. Several studies have been released in the past decade that proves gay and lesbian couples raise children just as effective and efficient, if not more effective and efficient, as those of heterosexual relations. As a former Washington post editor Ezra Klein said “We should be begging gay couples to adopt children. We should see this as a great boon that gay marriage could bring to kids who need nothing more than two loving parents.”. In America alone, there are over 115,000 children waiting to be adopted. A San Antonio based federal judge stated that the ban on gay marriages “Causes needless stigmatization and humiliation for children raised by the loving same sex couples being targeted.”. Kids which are raised by gay and lesbian couples tend to be more of a target for the bullies. While gay marriage is not accepted, it also gives these kids less stability within their relationship and reliability on their parents. They don’t have the assurance that those of married couples have. Important to realize, if a divorce takes place within the household of a gay couple, the child is not guaranteed to receive child

Unfortunately, many arguments have arisen against the legalization of homosexual marriage. For example, some claim two fathers or two mothers are incapable of providing their children of the nurturing the child deserves that having both a father and a mother would provide. Some religions also believe that expanding the definition of marriage is redefining it from what it should only be: a union of a man and a woman. However, the American Psychological Association (APA), the American Sociological Association (ASA), and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) have each endorsed the legalization of same-sex marriage and its capacity to provide a stable familial framework for children. Furthermore, removing discrimination from the institution of marriage “does not redefine ‘marriage’ — it simply makes the institution more accessible and reflects the evolution of society” (Lipp). The APA, AAP, and ASA validate that same-sex marriage can be just as healthy and spiritually wholesome as opposite-sex marriage and religious freedoms should not interfere with that

The United States began taking measures to prevent same-sex marriage beginning in the 1920’s and continued to discriminate against members of the LGBTQ community in the 1950’s “Lavender Scare”. Decades of discrimination gave rise to the gay rights movement which began fighting for marriage equality in the 1980’s. Since then many powerful world nations have come to recognize gay marriage. Recently, the United States Supreme Court decision in the case of Windsor v. United States brought many states to get rid of same-sex marriage bans. Opponents believe gay marriage is wrong and has detrimental effects on the children raised by same-sex parents, such as delinquency and early sexual activity. Although these issues are not exclusive to same sex couples. Also, the traditional model has higher divorce and teen pregnancy rates. Same-Sex marriage will bring economic benefits, such as increased tax revenue and put millions of dollars into the tourism industry. According to the constitution, states must respect the marriages and laws recognized in other states. Therefore, refusing benefits and recognition to same-sex couples married out-of-state is unconstitutional. The United States of America claims to be a country of freedom where all people can come for

Through court cases like Eisenstadt v. Baird(1972), the courts have upheld the right to have children and that it is the “‘right of the individual, married or single, to be free from unwarranted governmental intrusion into matters so fundamentally affecting a person as the decision whether to bear or beget a child’” (Murphy 296). As a legal system, the courts have the responsibility to uphold the law while also taking into consideration the welfare of the child. The justice system would not allow for same sex marriage if it believed that there was any correlation between sexual orientation and unfit parenting. Courts in different states have struck down gay marriage, yet they have upheld the idea that child bearing is an important aspect of marriage. Courts have recently begun to acknowledge gay families by permitting second-parent adoptions (Mohr 60). This change in attitude exemplifies a change in status of gay marriages by recognizing the fact that these couples have the same rights to children as heterosexual families. Although bearing children cannot be part of the definition of marriage, it should not be a reason same sex marriage is illegal. This linkage must insinuate that same sex marriage is neither detrimental to the children and is a right that should be privileged.

Same-sex relationships date back to Greek and Roman times. They have existed in society for hundreds of years. It was during a culture shift during the Christian revolution that society began to condemn the practice. Our current society is realizing same-sex relationships do exist and have done so regardless of law allowing them to outwardly celebrate their unions. Gay couples have remained secluded in society and covered their living arrangements under feeble explanations and lies. Hiding true feelings and living a lie is destructive to a person’s well-being and happiness. Recently the United States took steps to legalize and recognize unions of all types whether they are of opposite-sex or same-sex. Our country stands for equality and freedom so this is only right that our country take this step along with many others around the globe.

Gay marriage is a controversial gay rights. On June 26,2015, the US Supreme Court made gay marriage legal and this gay couple’s right is protected by the US Constitution in all 50 states. Some opponents advocate that “marriage has long been a social institution defined by relationships between men and women.” (Nov. 6, 2014, 6th US District Court of Appeals Judge Jeffrey S. Sutton). Additionally, some people think gay marriage is unnatural and immoral. It is contrary to the beliefs, traditions of various religious groups. Personally, I disagree with Sutton’s statement. In the first place, marriage is a civil right for all human. Secondly, the reasons why people want to get married are love, rite of

State legislatures, voters and more recently the courts have made sweeping changes over the past two decades in laws defining whether marriage is limited to relationships between a man and a woman or is extended to same sex couples. Gay marriage and gay rights are a major controversy in the world today. It is a constant debate on whether or not traditional marriage is out-of-date and that a new way is better. Although many believe in gay rights, it is difficult to support something that is against the foundation of America, and something that is harmful to the people of America.

On June 26, 2015, the US Supreme Court ruled that the US Constitution guarantees the right for same-sex couples to marry. Should gay marriages be legal? Why should our nation accommodate such a dreadful Supreme Court ruling? Gay couples have become a major problem for our children. Children only repeat what they hear, see, and other habits from their role models. Our children are the ones who are being subjected to these horrifying situations.

Same-sex marriage is a topic that has become increasingly more debatable throughout time. America has been said to be the “land of the free,” but when it comes to homosexual couples, it is far from that. If same-sex marriage was legalized, many positive outcomes could emerge from it; the society would be closer to equality, adoption would increase, gained social support for families would develop, and it would positively affect the economy and tax revenues.
