Essay For Same Sex Marriage

Same sex-marriage is one of the most controversial and sensitive issues of recent times. According to the U.S Legal, Inc., “ same-sex marriage also known as gay marriage or homosexual marriage is a ceremonial union of two people of the same sex; marriage or marriage-like relationship between two women or two men.” Although reports indicated that as of June 2015, some 21 countries have legalized same-sex marriage nationwide , there are still m any countries debating over this issue explained Waxman (2015).
