Same Sex Rights And Human Rights

Gays should be allowed to have the same rights as everyone else. They used to not be allowed to adopt children in some states. They get abused verbally, mentally, and physically by their family and friends. There are some people who disagree with the thought of gays getting married. They can’t get jobs because of their sexual orientation. Some people accept the fact that they want to love who they want to love. What’s important is that gays are mistreated wherever they go.

Sexual orientation and gender identity are characteristic of the human personality. Therefore, the right to freely live the sexual orientation or gender identity and express them without fear are human rights in the fullest sense of the word. All people, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, should enjoy all the rights described in the Declaration Universal Human Rights. However, this ideology was just recently implemented. In the past, society, politics, and religion were against this and due to several organizations and their actions that impacted this movement. By protecting the weak and by unite citizens who were tired of being judged and treated horribly just because of their sexual orientation, major organizations shaped the development of that fight for

The fight to protect human rights has been ongoing since the creation of law. The question of what constitutes as a human right has been raised time and time again to redefine laws in order to accommodate groups who have had their rights violated. From women’s rights to the rights of coloured people in America, social movements have been an integral part of creating change for the betterment of society. Today, the world faces yet another movement: the campaign for gay rights and the legalization of same-sex marriage.

Approximately four weeks ago, the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history occurred not to far from UCF. Patrons of Pulse nightclub, a gay nightclub in Orlando where massacred by Omar Mateen, Mateen took the lives of forty-nine individuals all because of their presence in a gay establishment. This tragic incident wasn’t the first attack on the LGBT community, but it’s massive fatalities put Congress under even more pressure to reform gun laws, gay rights, and suspected terrorist legislation. As a political Science major, I take a special interest in the reactions among legislators after the Orlando incident and believe there should be more equal protection for gay people under the law. The two articles I will be analyzing, After Orlando, a Political Divide on Gay Rights Still Stands and Gay rights and wrongs: How the Orlando massacre affects the fight for LGBT rights furthers the discourse among the divide in Congress over gay rights.

The United States’ has been an active battleground for the LGBTQ+ community—and that, in itself, is why it has been such a successful movement. Due to the constant rallies and demands for inclusion and acceptance, the gay rights movement helped define a major part of the new millennium and paved the way for later movements that were bound to come. The liberationist approach dominated the homophile movement and, paired with the results leaning in the movement’s favor, it showed that it was not merely enough to demand equal rights, but to demand that one did not need to assimilate to be accepted. It can be argued that such an approach was necessary as the LGBTQ+ community already had the same political rights as their straight counterparts,

For many years, homosexuals have been discriminated because of their sexual orientation. There are parents who teach their children to look down on homosexuality and that it is seen unnatural. But that was before, now the new generation is still growing so they make their own decisions. This generation is more open-minded and more accepting to new ideas. Homosexuals should be able to live with the same equal rights as everyone in America since this is the country considered the “Land of the Free” or the “Mixing Pot.” African-Americans fought for equal rights and Hispanics fought for equal rights; then why can’t homosexuals also fight? If America wants to live up to their reputation then homosexuals should have

Throughout history, generations of Americans have been defined by the freedoms they fought for. Our founding fathers obviously fought for liberty from England, women at the turn of the 20th century bravely campaigned for the right to vote, and the youth of the 1950s and 1960s are perhaps best known for championing racial equality. In many, many years, the historians that reflect upon society today will probably agree that the most substantial battle waged by this generation is the one for LGBT rights. Great strides have been made for the gay community over the past several years, culminating with the Supreme Court ruling to recognize gay marriages as legal in all fifty states. However, the fight for homosexual equality is far from over. Despite having gained the right to marry-which was seen by many as the main focus of the gay rights movement- many people are still discriminated against in a variety of arenas every day because of their sexuality. One such sector is that of adoption. Although their inability to reproduce may make them appear to be the ideal candidates for adoption, many groups feel that gay couples should be prohibited from adopting due to religious or moral convictions. However, a strong case can certainly be made for allowing homosexual adoptions, namely because homosexuals already regularly adopt without incident, research has proven that gay parenting is not harmful to children, and it would support adoption in general.

The continuous development of the political and legal systems in the U.S. has put the significant conflict between LGBT rights and religious freedom to the center of public attention. The key concern is whether a business should be exempt from gay rights ordinances based on religious reasons. Senior counsels Gregory Baylor and Gregory Lipper had their debate last Monday regarding the legal and ethical implications of the two rights in the business world.

How can we be so backward as the most technologically advanced generation in the history of the world? How is it that in a world full of social interaction on the internet, giving us countless relationships and connections on a day-to-day basis, can we be so blind to the needs of one specific group of people? I’m referring to the LGBT community. In this time of social integration and communal thought, there is still a hate driven, homophobic, and isolationist treatment of these people. What I intend to illustrate is why the LGBT community should be accepted.

The LGBT community has made new laws each day to bring equality to all. “Throughout its, America has symbolized equality of opportunity for people of all races, origins, religions and creeds, serving as a beacon of hope for anyone seeking a better life. However, despite its founding principles of equality and acceptance, the United States also has a long history of denying basic rights to certain people” (LGBT Equality). When the US discriminates against a certain thing people retaliate and rise up and try to make new laws to help their cause. The LGBT community has been striving to bring equality in many ways. The LGBT community has made great strides in gaining equality of same-sex marriage, gay adoption, and transgender equality.

a world view is a set of belief that helps us in understanding the world. Every person has a set of principles which helps him in judging what is right or wrong. Religious rights can be defined as the cultural movements that responds to the changing the sexual values through asserting radical, socially conservative models of the government on time to time. Different cultures have the different religious rights as per their values and belief of religion. There are different religious movements on abortions, lesbian and gay rights and religion in government. I believe that every religion movement and world view need to be evaluated in terms of the humanity. If it is in favor of the person and the good of their welfare, it is good thing then. Otherwise, it is not ethical, or humane, so for instance, in some religions abortion is considered as unethical and inhumane while in the United States, it is legal and ethically moral that all women have the rights to make the decision whether to keep their child or abort the child. Like this, some religious belief is in against of the lesbian and gay rights, as if they were not people like those of us who are heterosexual, which they are the just have a different sexual preference.

LGBTQ rights have been a largely debated issue for many years now. Many questions about gay rights still stand. Should people who are LGBTQ have the right to marry? Do they deserve the same rights? In October 2014, only 19 states legalized LGBTQ marriage. (“By the numbers, Same-sex”) Now, in March 2015, that number has almost doubled. ("37 States with Legal") It’s no question that people are starting to open their eyes and realize that everyone deserves equal rights. As a matter of fact, in 1996, only 27% of Americans believed that LGBTQ people should have the right to marry. In 2014, this same poll gave a result of 55%. (“By the numbers, Same-sex”) While LGBTQ people are starting to get more rights, there still is plenty of work to do. 13 states, still do not allow LGBTQ marriage. ("37 States with Legal") These states make up 89 million people, or 28% of the US population. ("State & County QuickFacts") Also, many LGBTQ people are harassed regularly on the streets and at school. However, many laws and measures are being taken to protect LGBTQ rights, internationally, nationally and in specific states including New York.

To willingly want to fight for the safety and security of your country is courageous, selfless, and deserving of the utmost respect. One would think that more people would not want to risk their lives at war, than those who do. But countless brave souls go off to war because they want to and they love the idea of defending their home and loved ones. So the idea that such institutions would ever deny someone of risking their lives for the country seems absolutely ridiculous. But this was the very harsh reality of the LGBT community who wanted to serve in the military and be proud of not only their country, but also their identity and orientation. The extremely controversial “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy treated the gay and lesbian soldiers

Is the right to refuse service to LGBT individuals an actual case of violating a person 's religious rights or is it really a case of blatant discrimination? This may seem like a complicated question that has many unable to answer but in reality, it is actually quite simple. The refusal of service to LGBT individuals is not nor has it ever been a case of religious rights but a simple one of homophobic discrimination.
