For many years, gays have been fighting for the right to be treated as equal citizens. As a result of their sexual preference they have been mistreated, discriminated against, and looked down upon. In my opinion, I believe that everyone should be treated equally regardless of their sexual preference. Everyone has the right to be happy and it shoudn’t be deprived of them because of their chosen lifestyle. Many people bring up the issue that it isn’t morally right and it is against all religions to live that lifestyle but it isn’t our job to judge these individuals. Some rights that have been denied or difficult for them to attain are the right to get a job under the same stipulations as others applying for the same job the right to have kids and the right to marry.
In the workplace, most employers don’t condone or want gay individuals
Another right that gays have been fighting for is the right to raise kids and they were denied. The community fought and protested against this right because they felt that those gay individuals may try to influence the young children to be gay. They also claimed that it may cause confusion among children. They would be confused about who is the mother and who is the father and they may wonder why their parents don’t look like their friends parents. In my opinion, I feel that gays should be allowed to raise children because I don’t believe that they would try and encourage their lifestyle onto their child.
for many reasons. However the main reason I believe is that employers may feel that these persons will be a distraction. They may feel that it may cause other employees to feel uncomfortable and they may not work up to their ability.
