Sociology

Homosexual marriage, or gay marriage, is basically the legal union of two people of the same sex. This societal issue has been opposed mainly because it destroys the fundamental value of marriage as a basic institution in the society  that is, marriage should only be between a man and a woman. Ironically, in these modern times, we can still see gays being discriminated not just by the church itself but also by some other sectors of the society.

In a country where equality and liberty is greatly upheld, homosexual marriage should be allowed not only because it is an inherent human right but because it serves as an avenue for homosexuals to be recognized in the society in such a way that they will be given the same rights and opportunities which are being enjoyed by any other married couple. Through this, we ensure can that the state is protecting its people indiscriminately regardless of their sexual orientation and make sure that these individuals should get equal rights legally and socially. Hence, we guarantee as well that these people are being protected from abuses and violence against social stigma that is still prevalent in our modern society.
