Most people these days are in favor of equal rights for homosexuals. They agree that gays should have the same rights in housing, jobs, public accommodations, equal access to government benefits, equal protection of the law, etc. Then you get to the subject of same-sex marriage and suddenly all of the talk about equality stops dead cold. Many of the same people who are even passionately in favor of gay rights, still oppose the legalization of same-sex marriage. ...
Currently the United States is experiencing a large amount of excitement and activity revolving around the possibility of legalizing same-sex marriages. Legal marriage is acknowledged as a state-defined contract available only to a man and a woman. Marriage among society is considered the ultimate acknowledgment of two peoples commitment and love for each other. Same-sex couples have been celebrating public ceremonies of commitment for many years now, although they are not considered "real" marriages because they are not recognized by the state as legal. ... Why is it that homosexuals have been recognized in almost every situation involving equal rights, but are still denied the right to legal marriage?
