The Same Sex Marriage Should Be Legalized.

The same sex marriage has been widely debated in many countries for a long time. It is an important
issue because it concerns basic moral and human rights. Nowadays, many gay couples have come out
and expressed their sexuality choices. Although many people are against the legalization of same sex
marriage, the same sex marriage should be legalized because it is their civil rights which is a separate
institution with religious, it encoutages strong family value and leads to the increasing number of child
adoption, and the same sex marriage also brings a lot of financial benefits.
Many people believe that the same sex marriage should not be legalized because it goes against the
moral and the definition of marriage. According to MarketWatch magazine (2008), a lot of people believe
that same sex marriages destroy family values and the sanctity of tradition. Moreover, the same sex
marriage goes against many religious beliefs such as Catholicism and Islam. However, civil and religious
marriages are two separate institutions.Joe Solmoneses, the president of the Human Rights Campaign
Foundation, claims that marriage is not only a significant religious meaning but it is also a legal contract.
Many couples would not require any religious leaders to perform their marriages. So the frames of the
religious and law were seperated.
While a lot of people strongly believe that children need a mother and a father. According to the National
Institutes of Health (2009), girls who are raised apart from their father are reportedly at higher risk for
early sexual activities. Sames sex households are not appropriate for raising children. On the other hand,
Dr.Peggy Drexler, author of Our Father, Ourselves, Daughters and the Changing American Family,claims
that from her studies children raising in the same sex households felt more open-minded and empathetic
than other children. According to the research, the quality of a familys relationship is more important than
the particular structure of families. Moreover, research studies from the Human Rights Campaign
Foundation also shows that children raised by gay parents do just as well as children raised by straight
couples.
Another reason why same sex marriages should be legalized is financial benefits, Even though some
peoplr fell uncomfortable to have their tax used to support something the fing wrong, they think legalizing
gay marriage might cost toomuch tax money. However, same sex couples also pay tax as everybody, so
they have tha right to receive the same benefit with others. Moreover, the same sex marriage will gain a
lot of financial benefits through marriage licenses, higher income taxes and decrease in cost for state
benefit programs. Joe Solmonese argues that legalized gay marriage would reduce tax used on public
assistance programs.
Treating same-sex couples as families under law could even save
taxpayers money because marriage would require them to assume legal
responsibility for their joint living expenses and reduce their
dependence on public assistance programs such as Medicaid, Temporary
Assistance to Needy Families, Supplemental Security Income disability
payments and food stamps.

Therefore, the same financial benefits that apply to man-woman marriages apply to same-sex marriages.

The Christian Science Monitor support that gay marriage would improve the federal budgets bottom line
In conclusion, the same sex marriage should be legalized. It is human civil rights, it is encourage families
value and lead to a lot of financial profits to sate and local. Two people of the same sex who love each
other should allowed to publicly celebrate their commitment and receive the same benefits of marriage as
opposite sex couples. All lovers should be granted the final gift of marriage, because marriage is an
inalienable right of humans. Joe Solmonese confirm that one day in the near future, people will look back
on todays same-sex couples and families and ask with raised eyebrows, Why wouldnt two people, who
have spent their lives committed to one another, be granted the same human rights that most others take
for granted?. Marriage can provide families with true equality, so please stand for the same sex
marriages as marriage equality.

Same Sex Marriage

This Argumentative essay will discuss about the argument of same sex marriage. The contents are:
meaning, brief background and thesis statement for the Introduction; for the Body of the discussion is the
counter argument; and for the conclusion part: the summary and the restatement of the thesis statement.
Same Sex Marriage also known as gay marriage or equal marriage it is marriage between two
persons of the same biological sex or gender identity. In the 20th and 21st centuries various types of
same-sex unions have come to be legalized. Same-sex marriage is currently legal in eight European
countries: Belgium, Denmark, Iceland, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain,
and Sweden; Luxembourg, Finland, France and the United Kingdom are currently in the process of
legalization. Politicians in the United Kingdom have expressed their intention to promote legislation to
allow same-sex marriage. Other types of recognition for same-sex unions are as of 2012 legal in the
following European countries: Andorra, Austria, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Isle of
Man, Jersey, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Slovenia, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.Many people
have their own beliefs and reasoning's when it comes to Gay/Lesbian Marriage. God made a man and
woman to join hands together and say vows in the right way but however in some states it is a legal to get
married with your same sex. So, a man is for woman and woman is for man.
Three reasons why other person wants to legal the same sex marriage: First is, they have said all
have a sin nature, with weaknesses to sin in particular ways and some people express their sin nature is
one way, other people express theirs in other ways. Homosexuality is just one way in a fair and balanced
way. Secondly, Marriage is a basic human right and an individual personal choice and the State should
not interfere with same-gender couples who choose to marry. Thirdly, ending discrimination enhances the
human spirit and makes all our lives better.
To refute these three reasons why sex marriage should be legal I would say that the truth is even
though all of us have a sinful nature it does not mean we will take advantage of the grace of God. We
made by God to glorify Him and to do of His will not to do what we wanted because more of the time what
we wanted are not suppose to do. Also, the Pro says that they have the right to be married. Yes, it is right
that marriage is a personal choice but it does not mean that you are able to be married with your same
sex and not considering the laws of God about marriage because it is the Sacraments of Matrimony so it
is sacred and Holy. The next one is they have said that it is a discrimination part to them if it will not be
allowed but not legalizing the same sex marriage proposal does not mean gays and lesbian are being
discriminated it is just their decision is not acceptable with God and also in the Christian country like
Philippines thats why same sex marriage in the Philippines cannot be approved or be legalized in our

country. In addition, there are four other reasons why it should not be legalized in the Philippines. First,
because Gay/Lesbian marriage violates traditions; Secondly, Gay/Lesbian couples can't produce children;
thirdly, having a mom and a dad is better for children than having two moms or two dads and the last one
is homosexual behavior is immoral and should not be encouraged.
Same Sex Marriage is marriages compose of either same man or same woman. There are three
reasons why they have wanted Same Sex Marriage will be legal in the Philippines.
First, all have sinned so it is their way to commit it; Secondly, Marriage is a civil liberty; thirdly, to end
distinction and to have freedom. It should not be legal because of three reasons; first, we should follow
God because He is our Creator; secondly, choosing your partner in life should consider Gods will; thirdly,
you can have freedom but you should understand that it has limitations, discipline and responsibilities. In
addition, there are other reasons why it should not be allowed: it is a violation to our traditions; partners
are not able to have a child except if they will adopt a child and lastly it is debauched so it should be
prohibited in the Law.
Many people have their own beliefs and reasoning's when it comes to Gay/Lesbian Marriage. God
made a man and woman to join hands together and say vows in the right way but however in some states
it is a legal to get married with your same sex. So, a man is for woman and woman is for man.

Argumentative essay on Same Sex marriage

Marriage has been a part of life since before the medieval times. For two people who love each
other and plan on spending the rest of their lives together, the natural instinct is to make it legal and
get married. This being said same sex marriage has been widely discussed and debated on if it
should be legalized or not. It is discriminating not to allow two people who want to get married just
because they are homosexual. Legalizing same sex marriage would recognize the American dream
of equal rights for all. Marriage brings legal rights that protect a couple that if not married, they
should not have. On the other hand, some argue that homosexual marriage may cause disorder to
raise a child and disrupt the natural biological procreation of mankind.
Marriage is a commitment that two people make to each other in which they share their lives and
become like one. When the decision is made to be married, neither race nor religion is questioned.
However, your sexual orientation is. Imagine the hardships that a homosexual must overcome
throughout their entire life. Growing up feeling different than the majority of their peers because
they feel attracted to the same sex is difficult. The feeling of inequality is already present because at
a young age and throughout life, the feeling of being different and not accepted as you are being
overbearing. Once open about their sexuality, not being able to have the same rights as their
neighbors, co-workers, family to get married to someone they love and cherish is unjustifiable. It is
everyone's desire to share their best and worst moments in life with those they love. The issue of a
person's sexual orientation should not be an issue. All men are created equal, so the right to marry
should also be the same (Brumbaugh, 345).
When married, certain legal benefits are available. Not allowing same sex marriage denies a couple
to these certain benefits. The case in Florida is a perfect example of such benefits that are denied. A
lesbian couple, of 18 years, was on vacation when one of the women collapsed and was rushed to

the hospital. The other was denied access to visit her dying partner in the hospital because she was
not acknowledged like a family member. If they were able to marry, this would not have been the
case. Legalizing same sex marriage would allow each couple to be on the same health plan as well
as claim rights to belongings and inheritance. If married heterosexual couples have these rights, so
should homosexual couples (Brumbaugh, 345).
In opposition, it is argued that allowing same sex marriages would change the nature of parenthood.
Marriage is seen not only as a commitment of two people, but also as a form of procreation. It is a
known fact that in order to procreate, both a man and woman are needed. It is disputed that by
allowing same sex couples to marry would also allow ...
