Homosexual Rights

Is giving all the homosexuals in the world rights a good thing or bad thing? Is it right to keep them with no rights? There are no right or wrong answers to these questions because this issue is an opinion. You can't find a fact saying that the government needs to give them rights. People say homosexuals should have equal rights some say that they shouldn't... who is right and who is wrong? Personally when it comes to this issue I say that homosexuals should have rights as we straight people because it does not seem fair with the rights straight people have compared to the rights homosexuals barely have. No one has the right to tell anyone who to like or want to spend the rest of their life with. Today homosexual rights is still a big issue to the United States.


When it comes to marriage people argue over that issue also. Clinton says that if she becomes president she would expand homosexual rights. She says states like New Jersey and Massachusetts are also extending rights to homosexual couples and so the federal government should recognize that and should do the same to other states.

When people are out in public with their special one they like to show affection by holding hands hugging and kissing. People have no problems with straight people but when they see homosexuals they get offended. So it makes sense to let straight people show their love but then homosexuals can't? It's not fair for homosexuals. When is comes to marriage you want to spend you life with that special someone and cherish them with your life. Homosexuals have the same feelings as me and you but they have them towards the same sex as them. Every human being in this world has the right to be and love who ever they wan

I think this is a great post.Its so true and i strongly agree people shouldnt be judged by who they date and they should be able to date any one they want, even if it is girl and girl or boy and boy geting into a realationship. thats there right and they have a say in what they do..

Asian, i really like your blog you explained it in a good way and it's well thought out. I agree with you that people should have the same rights but then again i dont know i just don't think it's right for the same sex to be together but that's my opinion. but you did a good job on explaining why you think same sex should be allowed to be together without other people being affended. Good job!

I appreciate the fact that you reference a link to data supporting your point. I agree with you that we need to give all individuals the same rights, not dole them out according to various social norms established by a few. Nice post

I like how you link to some credible surveys out there and you link to Clinton's ideas. However, what would be very interesting to me, the reader, is a listing of "rights" that homosexuals are often denied and perhaps the states that deny them these rights. A listing of these rights is really needed early on in your blog so that people can really see what the issue really is and the seriousness of it.

I really like the information you have presented in your blog. I agree that people should have the right to choose their partners. But even those who don't agree have no right to demonstrate violence towards others who do. Great post!

I totally agree with you. It isn’t right that people are being treated unjustly just because they have a different sexual orientation from most people. I think that you have some great ideas! Check out my profile!

Could you be specific about the rights that homosexuals don’t have? I know the big one—there is no federal law that allows them to marry, but are they being denied other rights? Also, I don’t believe there is any law in the U.S. that bans homosexuals from showing their affection in public. There is no difference, from perspective, between gays and straights showing their affection openly in public. I am just as uncomfortable with gays “macking it” as straights. No matter your sexual orientation, I will be uncomfortable with inappropriate behavior.
