Let's legalize gay marriage Gay marriage is a right. Heterosexual couples can enjoy all the benefits of marriage, so why shouldn't same-sex couples be able to, too? Why should other people be able to choose who marries who? If a man and a woman get married, no one seems to care. Gay marriage should be legal because it is an equal rights issue, it would save society money, and it would increase the chances of adopted children being adopted into loving families. Same-sex marriage is a matter of equal rights. All human beings should be treated equally and have the same options. So allowing gay couples to marry would promote equality for all and break down this barrier we have between heterosexuals and homosexuals. Hetero couples marry for love and to start a family, but they also do so to have access to all the benefits and legal protections that come with it. Adoption, hospital visits, child support, and family insurance are just a few examples of obligations and protections denied to same-sex couples. Clearly, homosexuals will not have the same options as heterosexuals if they are not allowed to marry, thus ensuring that they are not treated equally, making this an equal rights issue. Another reason why gay marriage should be legalized is that it would not save money. Same-sex couples would save taxpayers money because they would lessen the state's responsibility for the health and well-being of many poor gay men. “Revenue from gay marriage comes from marriage licenses, increased income taxes, and decreased costs for state benefit programs” (Perry). Legalizing gay marriage would bring in between $20 million and $40 million a year in taxes.

Additionally, voting to pass bills and laws and boycotting gay marriage bans can help make it legal in all states. Bottom line, gay marriage should be legalized. Same-sex marriage is a matter of equal rights. Legalizing it would broaden people's beliefs and ensure equality. GayBringas marriage would save society money, increase revenue and create more jobs. Last but not least, same-sex marriage would increase the chances of adopted children being adopted by loving families, not to mention that having gay parents would make our future generations of children more creative, accepting, and more minded. open. Same-sex marriage would help society grow in many ways and strengthen the foundation for a better future.
