However, our nowadays society, there is far ls need for addnal children and same-sex marriage and therefore, the historil reasons why gay marriag had been prohibed the past may be missg our current long as gay upl are not allowed to marry, they will also not get the same benefs as married upl wh different sex.

However, this n be nsired to be que unfair sce all marriag should be treated as equally important, which also impli that the benefs for all sorts of upl should be siar or even, allowg gay marriag n also help to improve the accs to benefs for gay general, we often claim to be so tolerant our society while fact, many people are not tolerant at are still many mori that are discrimated agast due to their race, genr and other herent should be handipped due to those herent characteristics and therefore, gay marriag are another step towards a more tolerant, morn and open society that embrac a variety of different liftyl and same-sex marriag would have been unthkable jt a few centuri ago, our cultural valu changed que a fact, people our nowadays society often try new thgs, want to expand their knowledge and their experience and try to really figure out what they want to do wh their, gay marriage would give those people an addnal tool to change the cultural valu our society even further.

Allowg gay marriag would also greatly benef the overall health of gay fact, our current society, many people who have an tert the same sex have to hi their feelgs sce beg gay is still nsired to be tolerable by many people our n lead to ser emotnal nflicts, which may turn to severe mental issu the long n.

However, by allowg gay marriag, the overall level of tolerance our society would likely crease, which would lead to a state where gay upl uld eely live their liftyle whout havg to worry to get physilly or mentally turn, chanc are that this would also greatly improve their overall health gay upl do no longer have to fear gettg attacked by other people, chanc are that also their overall strs levels will drop turn, the people uld enjoy their liv much more whout havg to worry about the opns of others too much anymore. However, the state uld still allow gay marriag om a legal, relign and law uld be separated and gay marriag uld be allowed a non-relig many untri, there are nstutns place which state that everyone our society should have equal rights and should be able to make ee cisns for his or her life.

PROPOSN 8: WHO GAVE THE GAY MARRIAGE BATTLE?

Consequently, also om a nstutnal perspective, allowg gay marriag would make que a lot of om nstutnal ameworks, gay marriag may also be nsired as human right by many are not god and we should not dictate other people how they should live their liv. However, if we allow gay marriag and also give those gay upl adoptn rights, more orphans uld be turn, the overall chanc of those orphans to succeed life uld be creased our current state of the world, the overall level of acceptance towards gay upl is still rather limed many regns of our pla.

However, if we allow gay marriag those untri, chanc are that the overall acceptance society would crease and also the social stigma towards self-sex marriag uld be turn, also children who had been adopted by gay upl uld benef sce they would have an easier time school and life far as we know, we only have a sgle life and mak sense that we live our life to s fullt whenever we therefore mak sense to also allow gay marriag so that also gay people n do what they want life and are not rtricted by legal prohibn of gay marriag n also be nsired as a form of ser discrimatn. However, if ernments those untri allow same-sex marriag, chanc are that the overall level of tolerance towards gay upl would crease turn, people uld show the world who they really are stead of havg to hi their te are also many celebri out there who embrace the ia of gay n be que important orr to improve tolerance towards gay marriage our who currently are agast gay marriage may change their mds if their idols speak up for the allowance of same-sex marriag and our society will bee more tolerant towards alternative liftyl people our current society also nsir gay marriag as part of the lol culture. Dependg on the regn, people do no longer differentiate between straight and gay upl and therefore, there may no longer be a reason to prohib gay marriage at marriage may nflict wh relig beliefsSelf-sex marriage may nflict wh cultural valuMany people still nsir as dodgyWe need children to sta our populatnTolerance towards gay upl is still missgOpponents claim that gay marriage is agast human natureGay marriage may vlate certa tradnsMarriage may lose s importance our societyOpponents of gay marriage claim that is immoralRaisg kids hoeholds wh mother and father works btMay only be the begng of the erosn of cultural nceptsMarriage should be lked to procreatnNot allowed many untri yetSome people rather claim to abandon the ncept of marriage generalSame-sex marriag n be expensive for the stateAcceptance towards gay upl may be lackg even if they are allowed to marryApart om the var advantag of allowg gay marriag, there are still some downsis related to this disadvantage of gay marriage is that this ncept may nflict wh relig beliefs of many sorts.

For stance, the bible, gay marriag are not nsired to be the right way to people all over the world are still que relig and take the words of the bible and other scriptur que, those regns, allowg gay marriag may be que problematic sce many people would simply not tolerate this ncept om a relig marriag may also not be le wh historil cultural valu. In fact, gay marriage was never allowed the history of mankd and opponents of self-sex marriag often claim that we should therefore not allow cultur have not tolerated gay marriag for thoands of years, might make no sense to tolerate those social nstcts our current though the level of tolerance towards mori and also to self-sex marriag has creased que a lot over the past years some regns, there are still untri where the level of tolerance regardg gay marriage is still que low.

PROP 8 LG EXPLAED: WHY GAY MARRIAGE WILL RUME CALIFORNIA

People who live those regns often nsir gay marriag to be dodgy and not a thg that should be officially, many regns all over the world, gay upl may still have a hard time when to marryg sce the general public will still be que skeptil about this ncept.

Another problem of gay marriage is that the human populatn may drop signifintly over the actn of gay upl be too high, chanc are that fewer children will be though this uld be beneficial for our environment to a certa extent, uld also lead to ser problems if we don’t have sufficient children that are borne. Although we often claim that our society is que tolerant towards mori, the oppose is te for many untri all over the fact, everyone that viat om the mastream social norms and cultural valu is nsired to be dodgy many, also the overall tolerance towards gay upl is still rather limed many untri and therefore, gay upl will have to wa que a while until they will be allowed to marry, pecially more nservative parts of our marriag may also simply be agast nature. Th, many people also claim that marriag of people of the same sex are agast nature and should be prohibed due to marriag are also a difficult topic om a tradnal are often que sensive regardg chang our society sce they fear that their tradnal valu and beliefs bee erod over, many people also do not want to accept gay marriag as part of their society sce they fear to lose their historic tradnal valu.

Another downsi of gay marriage is that the ncept of marriage may also lose s importance our society over everyone is allowed to marry several different ways, the origal ia of marriage may no longer make turn, the whole ncept of marriage may bee outdated over time.
