Should gay marriage be legalized?
  1. Gay marriage is a way to demonstrate the validity of human rights in different countries, states and regions.
    1. It allows people to express their sexuality and identity at the same time.
    2. Arguing that if it should be legal or not is extremely important because it proves the ideological development in all the people, in today's society and in the modern world.
      1. Demonstrates the discriminatory or retrograde thinking of some people because of "religious" or taught reasons from home grounds.
      2. On June 26, 2015, the US Supreme Court ruled that gay marriage is a right protected by the US Constitution in all 50 states. Prior to their decision, same-sex marriage was already legal in 37 states and Washington DC, but was banned in the remaining 13.
        1. This is one of the most important events from long ago, back in in the 70s and 80s when the LGBT community in the United States protested demanding equality and justice for their rights.
        2. Denying some people the option to marry is discriminatory and creates a second class of citizens.
          1. It makes people feel the LGBT community as second-class citizens, desecrating their rights and equality they deserve in society.
          2. Same-sex couples should have access to the same benefits enjoyed by heterosexual married couples.
            1. It's a matter of equality to the State and to human rights.
            2. Legalizing gay marriage will not harm the institution of marriage, and same-sex marriages may even be more stable than heterosexual marriages.
              1. The fact that are marriages between same-sex couples does not affect people who are heterosexual or their own marriages.
              2. Yes. Why?
