‘ Marriage Equality ‘

The whole concept of marriage is being lost. GettingĀ a divorce has become so common that marriage doesn’t hold as much power as it used to. It’s not the sacred vow that once upon a time held so much power. Many people are now choosing not to get married. In some cases the only reason people do get married is solely for legal purposes and that’s where the advantage lies. Love is something that is and not many people find marriage necessary to bind that love.

The following article argues that because marriage is not as sacred as it used to be that it doesn’t really seem right to restrict some people who do desire it from marrying. The issue of raising children is also raised and it becomes apparent that there is no longer a traditional and ideal way that children are being raised. Many children are already being raised by single parents and if that so happened to be a gay couple then how could that be so different?

The traditional idea of marriage that so many are trying to keep alive is already being lost all over the world. Living together without being married is normal and even having a child out of wedlock is not so uncommon. Times are changing and people are beginning to see gay marriage as not that big of an issue. Its becoming a ‘why not?’ kind of discussion. People are becoming more open minded about marriage because its become a loose term and it’s not as serious as it once used to be.
