1. Does same sex marriage improves a man’s life or degrade/destroy it?

-sIn my opinion it depends on the principle of the person. For me I don’t care if a
same sex couple gets union or a permanent relationship because in the first place
who am I to get in their way and also I won’t get any benefit from hating on their
relationship.

2.If the topic is to improve a persons life, is there any modification that can be done to
further enhance the situation? If the topic destroys or degrades a person ,suggest a way and
explain how the topic is degrading a person

The topic is to improve a person’s life

Of course, first of all they should accept that the relationship would not be smooth sailing. It
is like against the odds. We all know society would not always be kind. Although, same sex
marriage is legally accepted in other countries. It still carries a social stigma. Maybe in the
next ten years, situation is much better for this kind of relationship when people become
more accepting, broadminded and understanding.
For the present time , there could always be challenges. Thus, both must be strong enough
to work and fight for their relationship to be successful. There would be advantage but
usually there is more disadvantage.

On modification to further enhance the situation. Socially, It is not only the couple who
would make the adjustment but people in society too. The world is evolving. If it seem there
are more gays, and lesbians today, it is not because there were few before. People today
are more "rights conscious". Thus, Gays and lesbians now are less afraid or timid to express
themselves unlike before, wherein these people fear condemnation of society and hide
their true selves. This is true especially for gays, because they can express with less
inhibition. I have this feeling that society today are more considerate of gays than with
lesbians .

So, society should keep an open mind that gender is not either male or female only. Thus,
we should be sensitive to other's gender to avoid offending people.
The government should also make modification in the way they perceived social structure
and this should be evident even in the different forms and documents, policies and rules,
projects and programs and laws being done and implemented.

3.. If the topic degrades or destroys a person, suggest a way and explain how the topic is
degrading a person.

No person should allow himself to be degraded or destroyed. The first way should always be
self acceptance. This could not be an easy task for him, but who would fight for him/her but
himself/herself.
Aside from this, he or she should find a support group. The best would always be from
his/her family that he/she could talk to and find understanding, next is support from his/her
close friends.
