Today in my SOCI 130 class, we were talking about civil unions among homosexuals. Homosexuals are not allowed to get legally married in the majority of the United States. Althougth some states allow homosexuals to be legally unioned, they don't receive the same benefits that marriaged couples receive- such as inheritance, custody of children, and etc.
Should gay people be allowed to marry in order to get benefits? Homosexuals are fighting a civil war with the majority of the country. Should the American people give homosexuals their rights?
Despite anyone's individual views or opinions on homosexuality and the LGBTQ community, despite traditional oppression, despite religious bias, and despite previous (and current) laws of this nation- everyone of this world is entitled to equality.
