Recommended: Rights to gays and lesbians

The topic I picked is Homosexual people should have the right and the freedom like what straight people have in this world.
I think this topic is very controversial because in the U.S. Most homosexual people especially males, get discriminated because of what they feel: having attractiveness to their same sex. Most people in the U.S. are str8 and most people think that being gay or lesbian is wrong and it is not right to show it off and be proud of it.
Another point why this topic is very controversial is when gay people marry each other. Many people believe and many religions believe it is very wrong to marry the same sex person.
For example in the Roman Catholic followings. The church is totally against gay and lesbian relationships, because it if you do follow the gay and lesbian side its considered a big sin because in the teachings of GOD and Jesus you have to be with the opposite sex so you can make life.
The 2 perspectives that are drawn on this topic is that the 1st perspective is that you see the topic as very reasonable. For instance you do agree with the topic and you do want to follow what it says. The 2nd perspective is that you disagree with the topic and say that gay and lesbians should have the rights or as much freedom as straight people because they are “different” than most people.
The side that I want to represent is the one that I am with the perspective that sees that gay and lesbians should have the freedom to do whatever they want and with whom ever they want.
To me I am not gay myself, and I do not have any problems with these kinds of people. As long as they do not touch I’m cool with them. The reason I support the 1st perspective is because in this country the U.S. it is a free country and you can do whatever you want that is not crime committed or have to do anything that kills other people.
Homosexual people do not have the freedom, yet they still fight for their right to be homosexual. People around the U.S. are against the homosexual concept. What I do not understand is why do you have to be against this gay and lesbian concept in the 1st place? 1st of all what to do homosexuals have to do in your life; they do not interfere into you personal life. So why do you have to discriminate and make fun of the peo...

...ot see the side of whom they are inside, but they only see what they are.
A lot of people judge each other by a different number of things. But the most discrimination next to racism is homosexuality. The reason a lot of people think it is wrong because they think it is sick and it is not normal for other people to see homosexuals kissing or engaging in sexual intercourse.
Overall Homosexuals have it hard in the U.S. but not only here but around the world, some countries or religions kill people if they are gay. What I think about that is that I think it’s very wrong and people do not realize that being gay is very hard, and they can’t be put in their shoes to see how it is. The whole problem is that people of different aspects or view have been discriminated because of what they believe in and what they want to act in. So what I want to say is that homosexuals should have the same equal rights and the same amount of freedom as straight people because in this world it does not matter who, what you are, but it does matter how you contribute to this world and how people make it a better place.

  • Pros And Cons Of Malilingering

    1087 Words  | 3 Pages

    Malingering is to exaggerate or feign illness to escape work. Research shows that defendants who are evaluated for competency to stand trial and are charged with a murder trial are more likely to malinger. It is logical that a defendant would want to deliberate feigning and exaggeration of physical or psychological symptoms in order to avoid a negative outcome. A defendant’s competency to stand trial does not exclude them from being sentenced, either way, if incompetent, they are sent to be hospitalized in a mental institution. In most cases, defendants are competent to stand trial, whereas a little over ten percent are incompetent. If a defendant purposely caused the murder of another person, but suffers from schizophrenia, then they might be incompetent to stand trial. They would be hospitalized in a secure facility in the attempt to return them to competency. On the other hand, if an individual is not restorable to competency, then they would be

Gay rights, at the moment, are one of the most publicized and well known controversial subjects of this decade. The sides clearly drawn one fighting for rights as simple as being married the other stating that it defames their religion and goes against the definition of marriage, being between a man and a woman.

    Sixty-one years ago the world would never accept anyone from the LGBT community. They were dealing with unjust behavior every time they were seen in public.

    The reason I chose this subject is that the question of homosexual equality and especially marriage equality has become a highly discussed topic in the last few years, getting more and more publicity thanks to all kinds of different media trying to raise society’s awareness and making statements on the matter. There are posters on the streets and bus stops with the script: “Do you have to hide your sexuality at work? Discrimination is illegal. Fight it.” There are forums and social websites on the Internet supporting the LGBTQ community. ...

    Marriage, for years has been argued that the rights to it or strictly only between a man and a women. Both sexes are assumed to marry someone of the opposite sex. What if, however, an individual wanted to marry someone of the same sex? Why is this debate so heavily heated amongst individuals? Is it that religion is a large structure base that those in society are guided by? Or is it that individuals do not understand that marriage is a union between two individuals who are in love? Whatever the case may be, there is always someone who has to argue that homosexual marriage is “wrong.”

  • The Condition of Youth in Blake’s Songs of Innocence and Experience

    2685 Words  | 6 Pages

    Blake was also able to comment upon social class distinctions by holding up children as the most poignant examples of the effects of that harsh disparity. Presenting such politically important criticism and revolutionary rebellion in the form of a child’s chap-book was a way for Blake to further expound his point. Parents would have been expected to read along with their child, and would have gained an unexpected perspective on the texts as they watched their children read the sometimes disturbing poems with the same innocence depicted in the poor (and frequently illiterate) lower class subjects. Through his poems, and the intended reading of the Songs, Blake presents children as the ideal examples of life that adults should strive to imitate, both in innocence and experience.

  • Childhood in Robert Frost's Birchess and William Blake's The Chimney Sweeper

    1311 Words  | 3 Pages

    Blake's portrayal of childhood is far from happy. A small child's mother dies while that child is still very young; this is sad but not all together strange. However the child's father then, very soon after, sells him off to be a chimney sweeper. Blake does not stop here; after a description these children's living conditions few emotions are left except for pity. As Americans living in the twenty first century, this all seams very strange. We see childhood as a time of joy, and innocence; a time to embrace, and to not let slip by too fast. We see childhood as Robert Frost does.

  • Analysis Of Blake's Songs Of Innocence And Experience By William Blake

    734 Words  | 2 Pages

    In 1789, English poet William Blake first produced his famous poetry collection Songs of Innocence which “combines two distinct yet intimately related sequences of poems” (“Author’s Work” 1222). Throughout the years, Blake added more poems to his prominent Songs of Innocence until 1794, when he renamed it Songs of Innocence and Experience. The additional poems, called Songs of Experience, often have a direct counterpart in Blake’s original Songs of Innocence, producing pairs such as “The Lamb” and “The Tyger.” In Songs of Innocence and Experience, Blake uses musical devices, structure, and symbolism to develop the theme that experience brings both an awareness of potential evil and a tendency that allows it to become dominant over childhood

    As humans, it is natural to shy away from things that are different than the norm; we discriminate. It is very important to rid oneself of discrimination to better clarify the decision at hand. To make a valid conclusion on homosexuality, it is essential for one to forget what they were taught when socialization occurred, mainly birth to adulthood. As an example: You were told as a young child to hate and not associate yourself with African Americans because of the color of their skin, because they are different. When you grow older, you obtain a six-figure job, but y...

    An issue that has, in recent years, begun to increase in arguments, is the acceptability of homosexuality in society. Until recently, homosexuality was considered strictly taboo. If an individual was homosexual, it was considered a secret to be kept from all family, friends, and society. However, it seems that society has begun to accept this lifestyle by allowing same sex couples. The idea of coming out of the closet has moved to the head of homosexual individuals when it used to be the exception.
