No, allow civil unions but don’t call it marriage

we are all human beings and should all be allowed to love who we want to and marry who we want to no matter of the sex or race of the human.

People should be allowed to do what they feel is right as long as it doesnt harm others. We shouldnt discriminate as gay relationships were a thing that existed for hundreds of years. We should take the next step and create a more accepting and happier society.

marriage should not be confined to just male and female, it is for everyone and everyone should get that experience, the government should not be aloud to stop people from having that experience.

Religion did not invent marriage there are records on unions between two men that go back years. Calling it somthing else would just be clunky and unessesary.

It is marriage. Just because they are of the same sex doesn’t make their marriage any different from female and male.

Gay people are people too, and they deserve the same rights as all other people, including the right to marry.

Marriages aren't worth the paper they are written on, in any case. It's not like they are some higher sanctum or preserve than civil unions. Plus gays can make excellent marriage partners.

Marriage is a expression of love. To claim that gay people shouldn't be allowed to express their love is absurd.

i think it just ridiculous because i think gay people/the lgbtq+ community should get the right to bet married because they can't control who they like and who they are with .

Respecting the privacy of two consenting adults and their choices within their personal lives is a fundamental principle. When two individuals of the same sex decide to marry, it's a matter of personal choice that should not concern others. Marriage equality, which permits same-sex couples to marry, has no detrimental impact on society but instead reflects values of equality and individual rights. Allowing these unions fosters inclusivity and social harmony. Furthermore, it does not diminish the institution of marriage; instead, it reaffirms its role in promoting love and commitment.

Providing these couples with the opportunity to marry upholds values of freedom, equality, and respect for all, regardless of sexual orientation.

People of the gay community should have the right to label themselves as married and not feel less than anyone else.
