For and Against

Such topic as same sex marriage has been a topic of debate for many years, and it has attracted special attention lately due to more and more people aiming for equality. It is very disputable and has been talked about a lot lately, not stopping to be on the agenda of numerous meetings of state leaders.

Supporters of same sex marriage, whose number has grown steadily over the past 15 years, say that a relationship and marriage between people of the same sex is normal. Homosexuals don’t choose their sexuality, so their preferences are natural and can’t be forbidden in any way. They are just as capable of marriage, living together, and raising children, as straight couples. More and more countries are legalizing same sex marriage every day. Taiwan has recently become the first Asian country to do that. This is historical.

On the other hand, there are lots of people whose opinion differs from the above-mentioned for some reasons. It can be because of their religious beliefs or their moral standards.  Some tend to think that same sex relationships have negative effects on the offspring and that such marriages are totally abnormal. Actually, there are nations around the world that ban gay marriage and strongly disapprove of it.

All in all, the problem of same sex marriages is quite debatable and needs closer examination. But it is clear that before jumping to conclusions people should learn more about the nature of people’s sexuality, their psychology and other aspects of their mentalities. Only after that it is possible to say whether gay marriage is something that should be banned or something that should be legal and considered normal.
