I do not know about you, but whenever I am studying about seregration or oppression, I always look at the pictures on the history page and laugh at the people who are for the seregration and opppresion. Many people say that it is unkind, but be honest, we all do it.
Change is normal, sadly for most people, great for me. I like change because it allows us to grow.
Why am I stating all of this?
Gay marriage should be allowed. Yes, I believe that, and if you do not believe as so, you may comment some of these.
People Against Gay Marriage Comments
1. The reason to get married is to have children. A gay couple cannot produce children, so they should not be able to get married.
By that logic, an infertile woman or man should not be able to get married. That is all I have to say.
2. Same-sex marriage is against nature.
Nature involves complexity, and sometimes that involves the beauty of determining sexuality and gender. Every single animal has its own little quirk, this might be just be one of them.
3. Marriage is a religious. Therefore, since it is against of my religion to allow gay people to get married, it should be illegal.
There is a reason why religion and government do not mix. Marriage can be either religious or a government subject to deal with. Remember the "or", not "both", but "or". In the government, married people are allowed to have some benefits, so if you are against gay marriage, you are not allowing same-sex couples to have certain benefits.
4. The Bible
First, the Bible is not a federal document, so it should not be allowed to be part of the discussion. Not everyone is Christian, or whatever.
My Comments to Those Who are Against Gay Marriage
1. Not allowing gay marriage is religious oppresion.
Since marriage is based off of religion, not allowing someone to get married is religious oppresion.
2. A loving couple is a loving couple; it does not matter who is in a relationship.
A person's sexuality does not determine what type of person he or she is inside of a relationship. If a couple has a loving relationship, why they cannot get married?
3. Marriage is marriage. We should remove the labels.
Even though I used "gay marriage" throughout this post, I want to address marriage as marriage, that's it.
4. You do not have to get married to a person of the same gender if this law gets legalized.
This law does not make us a place where we only allow same-sex marriage (you will still be married to your spouse, do not worry), and you do not have to get married to a person who is of the same gender. Just be neutral about it.
5. Put yourself in their shoes.
What if someone told you cannot get married because of your sexuality? You would not think that it is fair, right? Exactly.
6. Many people have different preferences in their relationship situation.
Pretty much you are not allowing many people to get married, smooth.
7. Religion and government do not mix, so do not try to.
8. People in same-sex marriage are not the "devil" and do not say it is "Adam and Eve", and not "Adam and Steve".
To you all religious freaks out there, hopefully, you are satisfied :p.
9. Look how stupid you will look inside history books 20 years from now if you do not suppport it.
We look at pictures of people supporting seregration inside the 1960s and make fun. Look 40 years into the future, do you really want to see your picture and having a couple of teens making fun of it, no.
Yes, that is my rant for today. Hopefully, you enjoyed it. Also, what are some of your thoughts on same-sex marriage? Leave them in the comments below. Do you agree with me or not?
With love,
