cause there gay
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.
It depends on the state/country. As of 2014, in the US. single gay people may adopt in all states except Utah. Couples may adopt in about 25 states. In Canada, gay people have exactly the same rights as straight people for everything.
They have their own reasons.
Gay people marched. And voted. And picketed. And boycotted. And marched some more. And never ever gave up.
Gay people were not specifically considered upon the writing the Constitution, so there aren't any real "Gay rights" in the Bill of Rights. Although, the Bill of Rights still applies, I guess.
Some rights for all people include: marriage adoption of children inheritance from a spouse freedom from harassment safety at work or school freedom to be who you are Unfortunately, in many places, gay people lack one or more of these rights. In that situation..
It varies by country. Some countries do not give gay people equal rights.
Gay people don't have rights because the government is stupid. And is controlled by homophobes. Gay people should have the same rights as everyone else. So what if guys like guys or girls like girls? It's not affecting you unless your gay. Gay people should have rights.
If you are asking if equal rights for gay people are important, the answer is yes.
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.
Women's rights and gay rights definitely have some overlap, but the differences are in what rights are lacking.
