Gay Marriage
Gay marriage has become a prominent issue in American politics and society in recent years. DADT (Don't Ask Don't Tell), states legalizing gay marriage (and those who did not) and legal challenges brought by the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) community have pushed this issue into the forefront. But as some would agree, the right of gays and lesbians to marry is an idea whose time has come. For years we've been sideling the issue of gay rights, with DADT, we told gays and lesbians in the military to hide who they are and not to openly discuss their relationships. Hundreds of men and women who have served our country well have been discharged from the military because the government doesn't approve of who they love. In churches across the country, it is preached that being gay is a sin, that homosexuality is something that people need to be "delivered" from. It is only in more recent years that experts no longer believe that homosexuality is a disease. Homosexuals were subject to shock therapy and treatments that we now consider inhumane in an effort to "cure" them of their "disease." I its place are now "ex-gay" ministries and organizations which claim to be able to turn gay individuals straight (or at least celibate). All these practices underscore the notion that if you are gay or lesbian, you're abnormal and therefore not worthy of the privileges awarded to the rest of society. If and when gays are granted the federal right to marry, this will provide gay and lesbian couples access to financial, tax and legal benefits currently only afforded to heterosexual married couples.

Seo, who teaches at Yonsei University of Korea, created a homosexual student organization in 1995 called "Come Together." He states that "it would not be an overstatement to say that this was the first social movement through which homosesxuals could effect changes in their lives. The movement went beyond the ghettoized and marginalized locales, such as bars, theaters and saunas, where homosexual cultural and sexual activities were performed." After the
American marriage would reflect American principles of liberty and self-government. Unlike the hordes of serfs, servants, and subjects in other parts of the world, American citizens were going to shape their own lives and determine their country's destiny. Just as citizens would be self-governing in the political realm, they would also choose their spouses freely." (Hymowitz, 2004) Hymowitz shares the fact that the development of the idea of romantic love
The traditional approach to sexual education in the United States has emphasized anatomy, physiology, and the mechanics of reproduction and birth control to the virtual exclusion of more meaningful aspects of human sexuality. A modern comprehensive sexual education program should begin before most students have already begun experimenting sexually rather than afterwards. Likewise, it should include appropriate focus on ethical values and moral concepts that relate directly to sexual patterns
Gay Marriage Whether to allow same-sex marriage or not is a hotly debated topic in many Western countries at the present time. Belgium, Canada, Spain and the Netherlands have recently legalized it.
