Your views on same gender marriage.

Post by SilverAndBlaze »

Earlier today in our R.E (Religious Education) class we were having a discussion about this and thad made me want to make a topic about it, as there is about to be a debate in the House of Commons about fully legalizing it in the U.K.

Currently in the U.K. homosexuals can marry, but only as a 'civil partnership', which is a step down and doesn't include housing rights and stuff like that.

I think that they should be allowed to marry. I mean why not? If they're happy together, live and let live, as I say. A lot of you know i'm bisexual myself.

What do you think and why?

Luck is just talent spelled backwards. Actually it's not, but it sounded good when I thought of it.

Two people of the same gender should be able to live together happily in love and not be prosecuted for who they are. They are people like us and just because they find the same sex attractive doesn't make them any more different, making them be able to have the same rights as male and female marriages.

I'm for same sex marriages, while I know don't ask don't tell was repealed back in 2011. Did some of you know that at the time, it was considered liberal to do that?

Why do people give a **** about it anyways? They don't have a valid point to make it wrong, they never do, so why do they keep trying to make it stop?

So is dog poop, so we should give people who let dogs poop some major problem too.

^I'm thinking he's referring to the lack of national legality, in which case, our country as a whole is still behind. Unless you're just sharing the information, in which case, disregard this post.

Like,
Pretty much just,
Don't tell me who I can and cannot marry.
Because
It's none of your business.
I don't care who you are or what your beliefs are. I don't care if you like it or not. I have to put up with many things I don't like.
It should never be anyone else's choice who I marry.

Generally speaking, its due to faulty logic and/or unquestioned adherance to religious dogma combined with the desire to see secular law reflect one's faulty logic or religious dogma.

That said, I am in favor of legal recognition of all marriages, regardless of the number and sexes of the spouses involved.

Also, its nice to see that the UK is nearing the growing list of nations with recognition of homosexual marriages, though something that would show real progress would to see the EU or US showing such recognition. Of course, given its reputation for being the least progressive of developed nations, its unlikely that homosexual marriages will ever see official recognition by the US Federal Government, and I do not know if the EU's structure would even allow the EU to require all member states to recognize homosexual marriages. That said, each US state that offer recognition is a comparable step to every nation state outside of the US that offers recognition.

Honestly, I don't care if someone has a gay relationship. One of my best friends are gay, and I still think he's cool.

Eh, I don't even see the point of being against it. It doesn't really affect me if girls can marry girls and guys can marry guys, it isn't even any of my business. If anything being against it and making a big deal of it just makes it seem like a bigger deal than it is. So sure, I'm for it.

I dont have any problems with same-sex marriage either. As far as I know you can get married as a gay/lesbian couple here in the Netherlands. They're humans too and if they love each other, it's no different from a "regular" couple, right?

No, it didn't. The way law works over here is that an act has to be passed by both the house of commons and the house of lords. It was passed in the house of commons by an outstanding vote of 400-175, which is brilliant. However I doubt that it will be passed in the house of lords, this is because a major argument against gay marriage was that the bible says that marriage is between a man and a woman. The house of lords is mostly full of church of england bishops and the archbishops, which are obviously very religious. So due to our incompetence of being unable to let old traditions from hundreds of years ago die, we are probably going to remain as a nation that discriminates against gays.
Good effort UK.
(By the way in case it wasn't obvious, I am 100% for gay marriage)
