Hello, everyone. Today I am going to write a post about homosexuality and same-sex marriage. I will give you many facts about homosexuals and give my opinions about them.
“Attorney General Eric Holder said Friday the federal
government will recognize more than 1,000 same-sex marriages in Utah, despite
an earlier announcement this week from the state’s governor
saying the state would not.” What do you think about
this statement? “Seodaemun-gu Office in northern Seoul
said Tuesday that it will refuse to register the marriage between two men ― film director Kim-JhoGwang-soo and film distributor Kim
Seung-hwan― citing the
Constitution.” How about this? Well, these two statements were about
SAME SEX MARRIAGE. But the former was agreeing with it, and the latter was
objecting to it.
A
homosexual means a person who identifies physical attractiontoward the same sex.
Originally, in Korea homosexuality is not accepted biologically and socially,
but now most countries are having friendly attitude toward homosexuality. In today’s
speech, I want to tell you that we have to understand and accept things like
homosexuals loving each other, getting married, and adopting children. Also, we
should consider how homosexuals and same-sex marriage help our society.
First, same-sex
marriage means the variety of families. Nowadays, we have many various types of
families, such as nuclear family, childless family, and even single parent family.
In this kind of social current, it’s wrong to object to same-sex marriage,
while accepting many special kinds of families. Not getting rights and benefits
because they are homosexuals is not only unfair personally, but also can’t be
accepted for social ethics.
Second, homosexuals
can’t change themselves into heterosexuals with their wills, because
homosexuality is mostly due to biological factors, according to a research
about homosexuals. If we say homosexuality is bad and it can’t be allowed for
those people, it will be ignoring and even denying the existence of
homosexuals. So we need to consider allowing same-sex marriage.
Next, there’s no
reason to be discriminated because they are homosexuals. It’s undeniable that
they are Koreans and the fact they are homosexuals doesn’t affect accomplishing
their duties as Koreans. Thus, we have to recognize their freedomto marry who
they love. Also, they don’t affect badly to people or trigger bad effects
socially, so we don’t have to worry about or discriminate homosexuals because
of it. They sure have their rights to love and marry each other, like the
others loveand marry each other. We need to have the courage and the attitude
to accept their freedom as a citizen of Korea.
Lastly, as
left-handedness is not bad, homosexuality is not quite different from the
left-handed. But people are discriminating them because of a small difference, for
example, they don’t use right hands. We don’t need to contempt or force our
thoughts because other’s opinions are different from ours. But it’s sad that
people can’t reveal their gender identity and get married with the same-sex because
Koreans still see homosexuality negatively. For true happiness of every Korean,
I think we need to agree and try to understand everyone’s sense of value,
thoughts, and ideas. It’s our duty to see them as themselves not attacking or
laughing at their opinions and thoughts.
To conclude, we have
to acknowledge homosexuals as another kind of difference and permit them tomarry
each other and live happily by making a harmonious family. Thus, to accept
their ideas, we should know same-sex marriage shows us the variety of families.
Also, they can’t change themselves into heterosexuals so we have to respecttheir
own nature. Additionally, we must not have any prejudice against them just
because of the fact that they are homos. We should try to co-exist together.
Thank you for reading my post. Bye!
