Homosexuality is in many places a subject of heated discussion, and in general the morality of the subject must be decided by the individual, as there is little reliable evidence for all sides of the debate.
In the case of rights for gay people, it is true that gay people (in the U.S.) have basically the same rights that heterosexuals do.
One certainly has the prerogative to think that way, but it is illegal in some countries to discriminate against any group of people because of their gender, race, background, creed, ethnicity or sexual orientation. Opposing gay rights would be synonymous with opposing human rights. This is not morally acceptable, but people definitely have the right to hate others.
Natural rights are rights that EVERYONE IS BORN WITH and that CANNOT be taken away, no matter what! They include LIFE, LIBERTY, AND PROPERTY.
There are many ways gay people are denied their rights. As of 2013, Gay people are still denied the right to marry in 36 US states. Many of those states also ban gay people from adopting or visiting their partners in the hospital. Gay people can also be fired from their jobs for being gay in 31 states.
Some of the issues that the Religious Right rejected were women's liberation, homosexuality, and abortion.
Yes, all gay people in the United States have some rights, but depending on the state, they may be lacking some important rights, such as the right to marry, and the right to not get fired from a job for being gay.
Maternity leave rights vary by state and by company.
There are no "gay rights". Gay people should have every statutory and Constitutional right Straight people have.
Gay people lack the following rights in most areas of the USA, though each state offers different rights: the right to marry the right to adopt children the right to not be fired from a job for being gay the right to inherit property from a partner the right to visit a partner in the hospital the right to not be discriminated against by businesses and organizations the right to walk downt he street and not be glared at or beaten up the right to donate blood (gay men lack this right)
Which statement is true? *Feminism and gay rights were political and social movements. (was the right answer for me on apx)
Homosexuality isn't a choice. Gay people don't choose to be gay. Accepting them as equals with equal rights to love and happiness is the morally permissible thing to do.
Gay people do not have the same rights as straight people. The major rights that gay people are fighting for today are:The right to marry the person they loveThe right not to get fired just for being gayThe right to adopt children (in some areas)The right for healthy gay men to donate blood and organsThe right to walk down the street and not be harrassed or attackedThe right to inherit a deceased partner's estate without paying taxes
The word that means morally right is "virtuous."
