Gay Rights

 

            One of the more popular current topics involving an ethical issue is that of same-sex marriages. The issue has been debated a lot over the last couple years, and some states are even beginning to honor the notion of two people of the same sex being united in the sacred union of marriage. This issue has even come up in the recent debates for the democratic nomination for president. This is something that a lot of people are talking about and by now everybody has formed an opinion and here is mine.
             First off I believe that homosexuality is wrong; morally, religiously, and any other reason one would need to justify it being wrong. Men are usually stereotyped for thinking that men who are gay are not right, but attractive women being gay is ok. Personally I think that any case being attracted to the same sex, but I would rather watch two girls make out than two guys do so. I think that naturally men are more defensive towards gay men and women are defensive towards women who like women. However, in our society is hard to have moral views that include hatred towards one group of people or another. This is the year 2004 and it is about time that we all learn to leave together without all of the conflict. Do I myself like gay men? No, actually I find it kind of disgusting and do not at all feel that it is right or normal. Being that I am not going to judge somebody just because they have a different sexual orientation than my own. I am developed enough in social conditions to judge somebody for who they are not what they are. I do not have any gay friends or try to associate with any but I will not go looking for them and violently beat the crap out of them. I pride myself on being and acting in a civilized manner. I think we should all adopt the policy of don't ask don't tell. I have had acquaintances that were gay and it was never an issue. The thing that makes me upset is when someone openly advertises their sexual orientation and acts like a fruit.
