This document provides a comparative analysis of same-sex marriage in Canada, the United States, and Japan. In Canada, same-sex marriage is legally recognized and was first legalized at the provincial level. In the US, it is not recognized federally but is legal in some states and public opinion is shifting in favor. Japan recently allowed same-sex marriage for Japanese citizens marrying foreign partners where it is legal, representing progress among Asian nations. Attitudes toward same-sex marriage are changing globally due to social and legal developments as well as traditional and new media coverage of LGBT rights issues.

Those against gay marriage argue that allowing it would provide benefits like Social Security to gay couples that are currently denied. The document outlines the story of one gay couple denied these rights and examines both sides of the same-sex marriage debate.Same Sex Marriage Debate

Supporters argue that same-sex couples should have equal treatment and rights as heterosexual couples.

While same-sex unions have long existed, same-sex couples are now gaining more legal recognition. In the U.S., the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy helped protect gays from discrimination in the military and President Obama overturned the Defense of Marriage Act to recognize same-sex marriages. However, barriers still exist as 29 states restrict marriage to opposite-sex couples and 37 have passed Defense of Marriage Acts. Proposed solutions to further gay rights have come from government agencies, religious groups, grassroots organizations, and changes to state and federal laws.Sabrina Winston - Same-Sex Marriage Thesis Presentation

The document discusses the ongoing debate around same-sex marriage in the United States. It outlines the key arguments on both sides of the issue, including that same-sex marriage violates Christian beliefs but supports equal rights for all citizens to marry, and that while some argue homosexuality is a choice, others believe it is genetically determined. Additionally, it notes that the federal government does not require recognition of same-sex marriages but leaves it to state laws to decide.Same sex marriage-powerpoint[1]![Same sex marriage-powerpoint[1]](https://cdn.slidesharecdn.com/ss_thumbnails/same-sexmarriagepowerpoint1-100425210706-phpapp02-thumbnail.jpg?width=560&fit=bounds)

Same-sex marriage has been debated in the United States for some time. While some countries and U.S. states have legalized same-sex marriage, many remain opposed. The document presents counterarguments to show those opposed that there are no valid arguments against gay marriage, and that arguments instead support gay marriage. It argues that marriage is defined without restrictions on sexuality, and that opposition often stems from religion, which the constitution protects freedom from as well as freedom of. The document concludes that we should support love and commitment between all people through supporting same-sex marriage.Same-sex marriage

The functionalists perspective of teamwork is productive, but the fear of change may prevent economic growth in spite of stability. The conflicts perspective doesnt fear to change the system up, but the hasty actions may have consequences that society itself wont be able to cope with.

This document discusses how redefining marriage to include same-sex unions makes it harder for heterosexuals to fulfill their marital dreams. It argues that:
1. Opposition to same-sex marriage is because redefining marriage will weaken heterosexual marriage, which could harm children and society.
2. Redefining marriage changes it from an institution focused on responsible procreation and child-rearing, to one based only on adult desires. This leaves children's rights and needs unprotected.
3. Analogizing to changing the rules of a chess club, it suggests redefining marriage could cause heterosexuals to leave the institution or be less committed to it, weakening the social benefits of lifelong heterosexualGay marriage speech

Legalizing gay marriage could help decrease discrimination and social stigmatization of LGBT individuals and families. Research also suggests states that allow gay marriage have lower divorce rates. Banning gay marriage denies benefits only given to married couples, such as tax, medical, family, and death benefits, to same-sex couples.
