Why did homosexuals want gay marriage to be legalized? Problem surrounding human right has always been a conundrum; and one conflict that recently gain popularity is that whether a government (or nation) should legalize gay marriage or not. The fact that the government should be the decider is because, they are the one who overlook their citizen (both heterosexuals and homosexuals), and only the government decision can decide whether gay marriage is legal or not; and as a citizen both heterosexuals and homosexuals should abide to the rule. Something to note is that homosexuality is not an event that happen recently. As a matter of fact archaeologist has found a 5000 years old skeleton of a man that is buried with household jugs (a trait that

In the 1968, Diagnostic and Statical Manual of Mental Disorders (a textbook of mental disorders that is released in 1968) classify homosexuality as a sexual deviation along with fetishism, pedophilia, transvestism, and exhibitionism (Cain, 1991). This maybe an old textbook, but we can see that many expert against this because homosexuality can be found in nature. Clellah Ford and Frank Beach are examples of experts that thinks homosexuality is not a psychological problem as it can be found in most mammals, in another way homosexuality is natural (Cain, 1991). One think that I want to stressed is that other sexual deviation such as pedophilia and incest can be found in a lot more animals not only mammals. Using the logical thinking that homosexuality is okay because it is natural, we can conclude that both people with sexual preferences of pedophilia and incest should have their rights to marriage as well. It can be clearly seen how it will bring trouble to a nation in the future. It is a “slippery slope”, there is no boundary to what is right and wrong anymore, all thanks to one group supposedly claiming their right. And even if textbook nowadays does not include homosexuality as sexual deviation, some homosexuals do become gay because of conflict during childhood; and can be reverted back if the conflict reach resolution. Legalization of gay marriage will only bring

Since the initial spike of Gay marriage (gay marriage was legalized in America ever since 2014), there has been a slower demand for gay wedding (Daily Mail, 2016). Without the need of wedding there are already homosexual couple that has cohabited for years. The government cannot ban homosexual couple as it was their private business, but what the government can do is to not legalize gay marriage. From the legalization of marriage other than a piece of paper saying that they are married, from the government; there is no big impact. They cannot change how all the society thinks, another example is in certain part of America (Utah and Washington State) it is legal to have an intercourse with certain animals, the legalization does not change what the society think about them. Other than that there is also a psychological burden to marriage that often leads to divorce (Leiblu, 2004). Seeing how homosexual partner can live wit each other happily without the need of marriage, why do they try so hard to legalize gay marriage. Not mentioning the fact that the government should worry about the rules regarding homosexual divorce. Knowing that legalization of gay marriage will not have a great benefit for the homosexuals, government should not start to legalize gay marriage on the first
