Derechos De Los Gays

Gay rights

Two men are walking down the street very peacefully until they decide to kiss one another right out in the open. Some people look upon this as weird and others look upon it in disgust. Some even get angry about it. Is there a problem with what these men just did? Should they be left alone or reprimanded for what they have done? The issue of gay rights is very cloudy in our nation. Most of this is due to the problems with the issue, the reasons for controversy, and pros and cons of the issue.

As human beings we expect to be able to love who ever we want. We are said to be equals. But this is not the case at all. Beneath all the sugar coated thoughts that we have is the truth.

Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual people have been subtly denied these assumptions. In a lot of nations they aren’t allowed to be married. There are hate crimes committed against them.

Despite being on the threshold of XXI century, homosexuality remains a taboo subject, which, if it can, it will be avoid. (Javier Gafo, 2004)

They are considerated detrimental to society, but what most people don’t realize is that they have the same care, compassion and love as anyone else.

Many of them are Christians and value God, family and the commitment to their partners. Everyone wants to point a finger and preach about how homosexuality is against God’s law; therefore they shouldn’t be allowed to marry. There is not a single piece of history that determines whether or not same sex marriage is right or wrong.

Same sex couples just want the benefits of being married like everyone else, just as benefits on health, getting to make decisions that are best for their spouse in extreme cases, etc.

Gay people have the same sexual and emotional needs than others, but resolved with same-sex people. (Félix López Sánchez, 2006)

Gay rights in my eyes are just the same as any other, such as civil and women’s rights. Today, many people want to get upset
