Gay marriage should be legal

drhead
Pennington

I'll keep this one simple.

This debate is (quite obviously) on the subject of whether or not gay marriages should be legal.

Round 1 will be for acceptance, with no arguments posted.
Round 2 will be for arguments, no rebuttals of Pro's arguments by Con yet.
Round 3 will be for rebuttals of round 2 arguments and for adding new arguments.
Round 4 will be for rebuttals of round 3 arguments and for adding new arguments.
Round 5 will be for final rebuttal...

This debate is on whether homosexuality is 'good' or 'bad', acceptable or wrong, natural or unnatural. I am for homosexuality. You are born homosexual, it isn't something you can catch, and they are the same as straight people, just different sexual preferences. I look forward to this debate....

Gay Marraige Should Be Allowed.

Gays should be allowed to marry partners of their choice just as heterosexual couples do. It is ignorant in today's world to deny such a basic right to an individual because of something that is innate. Yes, sexuality is not a choice, it is innate. For my first point, let me state that a civil union is not a reasonable compromise for a legal marriage. Most civil unions don't have the same rights as a legal marriage has. Even if we made all civil unions exactly equal to legal marriage but cal...

It's time to privatize the British Monarchy

YYW

Thanks to the policies of the Conservative-led British Government, the rich have become richer while the poor have become poorer. But it's not just the working class who have suffered at the hands of the current rightist government: the middle class (who normally vote Conservative) have also been hit hard and have seen their family tax credits slashed; their child benefit payments withdrawn and their cost of living increase much faster than their salaries - and this all to fund tax cuts for bank...

Cohabitation before marriage

I am against the cohabitation before marriage. Firstly, I can give dozens of examples when young couples break up their relationships after several months even years of living together. Secondly, I think that especially a girl should live only with her husband....

Should prostitution be legalized?

Diana_Abildaeva
subham.sibasish

Prostitution is a really big business. Everyone want sex. Prostitution was in the past and continue to be now. First of all, women (or men) that haven't anything besides their bodies will have opportunities of a legal well - paid work. If prostitution will be legalized these people will have comfortable conditions and stable earnings. For some people prostitution is the way of life and why don't let them to have a work that they want with good conditions?...

intermediate students should be able to date and show their affection at school

Julieprincess
Nonsensicality

intermediate students should be able to date and show their affection at school because some students aren't able to see each other before/after school or on the weekends so school is the only place that they can see each other. adults should be able to trust the students to make good choices especially because they are surrounded by teachers.
