What if suffering from mental or physical abuse is the very thing that teaches you not to be like them? I mean, you know what it feels like and I wouldn't say it feels quite joyful obviously, so you don't really want your kids or others to feel like that, right? So what if this contributes to a a voice in your brain saying "You see? You don't want to make others feel this way because it's not good, you have experienced this, but you can't change that so might as well learn from it, that's the only thing you can actually do, seeing it as beneficial" I'm aware of the fact that not many of those realize this, so that is why, I think we should help them realize that.
Not allowing them to marry is like taking the chance away to be their happy and free selves. The thing is, you can't change sexual orientation. They know that it is "bad" (well according to society) so why would they be gay on purpose? I think this should not be a debate topic, because there is no thing we can do about being homosexual. In the 1950s the governments tried to "cure" gay people with changing or erasing their hormones, and most of these movements ended with suicide. Did we send them to death? And it's not a thing that was only usual back then, not one or two homosexuals are killing themselves in this very moment you are reading this. "Be yourself" they say, but how can you if it's illegal? Another point worth mentioning is, they say we mustn't allow it because in a same-sex relationship there can't be kids naturally and this would affect our popularity. Well, have you heard about adopting or surrogate mothers? "But they don't want children, you may say. Let me tell you, this has nothing to do with being gay. There are straight people who die with no successors left behind and that is okay, but if it's a homosexual person it is not acceptable? Gays will be gay if it's against the law, and if it's not, so might as well allow them to marry and have children, so it 'doesn't affect the popularity'. Tell me if I'm being inexperienced but I have not heard a single story stating a man has turned from gay to straight. In addition, if we hate gay people because they don't have kids, what about priests, infertiles? You may ask, how can I compare them to infertiles whilst it's not something you can change, that's right but so is sexual orientation. I need you to think it over rationally. Just take a look at it from a different perspective. If you were told tomorrow that you mustn't be straight, it's illegal, what would you?
