Gay Marriage

Okay, so I didn't really want to share my opinion on this subject because I am so passionate about it. Then I decided that everyone should have their opinions heard, so here you go. 

First of all, I'm straight. No you didn't need to know that, but after reading some of you would probably assume otherwise and think that I'm biased in some sort of way. 

Anyway, to the point. People that fall in love with the same gender SHOULD be able to marry that person. The countries that do not allow same-sex marriage are denying so many people the right do marry the person that they love.

Gays are not hurting anyone by being attracted to a person of their gender, they are not hurting by kissing or hugging that person, and they sure as hell aren't hurting anyone by wanting to marry a person of the same gender that they LOVE.

People say that marriage is there for couples who intend to procreate, and gay couples can't naturally and this is why gay marriage is wrong. This is ridiculous. So what if they can't procreate, there are so many children given up for adoption each year and many of these gay couples could offer them a loving home but most aren't able to because of the laws.

Yes, some of you are saying "Children need both parents of different genders in their life." No they don't. What about the children that grow up without influence from one gender that is completely out of their control? These children still turn out perfectly fine. And to say that these children will only have influence from one gender is stupid; I'm sure these children will have relatives or friends to influence them.

It disgusts me that in some countries people are sentenced to death for committing sodomy. Seriously, just get over it and let them live how they want to live. People are put in jail for being attracted to someone of the same gender, it's heartbreaking.

Gays are the same as everyone else. They are the same as me, they are the same as you, they are the same as your friend. The only difference is who they're attracted.

I'll sum it up like this. "It's like our taste buds, we can't choose the foods we like and everyone has different taste." This is the same with Gays, they can't choose who they are attracted to or who they fall in love with, it just happens. We are all equal.

I've missed out so much I want to say, and half of it probably doesn't make sense, but if I keep going I'll never stop.

Fight for Gay Rights.
