How do you feel about same sex realtionships?

Question

DO they make you feel uncomfortable? DO you believe same sex marriage should be allowed and what should it be called?(i am straight)

Answer 1

same sex relationships dont bother me in the slightest. yes i believe they should be allowed, and yes, it should be called Marriage. I'm straight too, so i dont think this affects me on any level, but i try to look at it from a different standpoint...what if i were straight, in a world that was homosexual? what if i was the minority, wanting the right to marry someone of the opposite gender?

Answer 2

I think same sex relationships are just as good or bad as and heterosexual relationship can be. Yes I believe in gay marriage, for reasons Ive stated too many times and it should be called marriage. Equal but not the same is not equal lol.

And to the....person...who said homosexuality is an abnormality only found in humans...You could not possibly be more incorrect. Quite the opposite is true. Rather than tell you all the information, have a look for yourself. Make a note of the line "especially in species closer to humans on the evolutionary scale"...I found it quite interesting. What is not very common is for animals to be monogamous. By no means am I saying mongamy is not natural, just if you want to compare people to animals, there are similarities, humans are NOT mongamous (always). So homosexuality wouldn;t be the abnorm in nature, actually marriage would. But I'd still like the right to try it. Can;t screw it up any worse than straight people have.

Answer 3

I think, it's another beauty in a relationship. Like true love really means just for 'male & female' only ? I strongly say it's not. It's the feelings when you're with that person. If the feeling is right, then you know you're in love. It's that special feeling that matters more than whether that person is a male or female. I think whoever that can makes you feel happy and safe to be around with, then thatz a relationship that you should cherish because true relationship doesn't come easy. Yes, I agree in the love between same sex. Same sex marriage ? I don't think it's necessary but why object ? As long as they're happy and if they want it, then it should be allowed..

Answer 4

I think that it really doesn't matter what anyone thinks about same sex relationships. If someone feels "uncomfortable" and starts using religion to justify feeling "uncomfortable" it's like listening to a broken record.... While I don't think gay people should ape the heterosexual standards of marriage (half of all marriages end in divorce...), if they want that, then they should be allowed the same rights and benefits that heteros do..

Answer 5

I don't think their are nothing wrong with same sex relationships. They are human beings with feelings too. And yes if straight people get to marry each other it's only fair that same sex marriage should be allowed. "ALL MEN WERE CREATED EQUAL"(I am straight too, but I support the gay community!!)

Answer 6

As a lesbian, I think same sex relationships are great. Seriously though there has been same-sex marriage in my state for almost a year now and its basically just been life as normal. The economy did make a big hike though, particularly companies that sell products for marriages, and halls where marriages take place.

Answer 7

In his "Notes on Virginia", Thomas Jefferson wrote: "The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no God. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg."
I believe this applies to same sex relationships, and more importantly, same sex marriages. Government has not right to restrict consenting adults from marrying. Religious conservatives have no right to restrict it. Gay marriage, contrary to popular fundie rhetoric, does NOT undermine the American family. Jefferson was writing to protect our ability to believe different things. I wish our elected officials would remember that.

Answer 8

same sex relationships are as natural for gay people as breathing. i don't really care what we call it as long as we put an end to the disenfranchisement of gay people and allow two that love each other to come together with the same legal protections a married couple have.

Answer 9

first was the battle of women wanting equality from men. now same sex couple wanting equality from opposite sex couple. that is all there is. most people are born bigots/hypocrites.. holler to all repubs/fallwell followers/and that old guy in 700 club.

and now, women can vote, get higher jobs and bring home more dough, be sensual than ever... men are just pissed off women can strive better than them.. how much more if gay men and gay women... go figure..

Answer 10

Check out what this forward thinking European Politician said on the subject:-

"Today, Spanish society is responding to a group of people who for years have been humiliated, whose rights have been ignored, their dignity offended, their identity denied and their freedom restricted. Today Spanish society grants them the respect they deserve, recognizes their rights, restores their dignity, affirms their identity, and restores their liberty."

-- Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodiguez Zapatero addressing the Congress of Deputies, which voted to legalize full same-sex marriage and gay adoption, June 30, 2005.

In answer to your question:-

I feel really good about same sex relationships because I have been in one for the last twenty-one (21) years.

Yes, I feel entirely comfortable with my situation.

Yes, I believe same sex marriage should be legal, it should be called "MARRIAGE".

In the United Kingdom (Great Britain) it's entirely legal, they call it "CIVIL PARTNERSHIP" and keep religion out of the picture entirely.
