Outlawing homosexuality? I think not.

Would you want someone to interfere with your love life? I don't thinks so. So should someone interfere with somebody's love life, just because of the gender of their partner? No. I am writing this essay to show you that homosexuality isn't wrong, and trying to outlaw it is just plain stupid. Homosexuality should stay legal, and I have these three reasons to support my statement: All people have rights, gay or not; some people are just gay, they don't have a choice of who they are they are, that's just the way they are; and tolerance is important towards any kind of person.

Every person has rights to be associated with whichever gender. First of all, the Constitution states that every man(and woman) has the right to express themselves by written words and actions. Secondly, in the U.S., we live in a democracy, not a religious dictatorship, so a bunch of religious people can't just keep homosexual people apart, they have rights. Lastly, being in a homosexual relationship is part of someone's private life, and should not be meddled with by the government! So, everyone has rights to be with whomever they love, same gender or not, at least in the U.S. anyway.

Homosexual people don't choose to be gay, they just are, and you can't change that. Let's face it, about 10% of the world is gay, maybe a little less; so it's going to be hard if people are going to even try to outlaw homosexuality. More importantly, people love each other because of their personality, smarts, and even if it's just plain chemistry between them; it doesn't matter what the gender is of someone you love, it's the person. Some people deny that they are gay, even when they are homosexual; they shouldn't be afraid of being who they are. Being homosexual, bisexual, or even heterosexual is a part of your identity, and you can't change it, so be yourself, and love whomever you want.

Tolerance is an important value to all people, including homosexual ones. Just think if homosexuality is outlawed for a moment; if you outlaw homosexuality, people might just start to be not tolerant towards other things and start outlawing them. If there was no tolerance throughout human society, the world would fall apart(metaphorically), because maybe someone didn't tolerate someone just because they had blue eyes, or had different colored skin, so all people would go against each other. Also, just because some religious people are homophobic or not tolerant of homosexual people, doesn't mean everyone else shouldn't be tolerant against them. In any case, tolerance is very important for everyone, and a lot more people should be tolerant to a lot more things, like homosexuality.

Homosexuality should stay legal, because of three reasons: All people have rights, gay or not; some people are just gay, they don't have a choice of who they are, that's just the way they are; and tolerance is important towards any kind of person. You should realize by now, from reading this essay, that all people have rights. Also that people who are gay, are gay, not otherwise. The third thing you should know by now is that tolerance is an important value, and more people should have it. So obviously by now, you should realize that outlawing homosexuality would be a pointless and futile effort.
