    BSA 1-1 Assignment
    Agree or Disagree.
    Are you in favor of legalizing marriage among homosexuals and transgenders?
    Why?
    Although I don't belong to the LGBTQ+ community, I have a couple of friends
    who do. We've known for years that people who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or
    transgender face social, economic, and health inequities—frequently due to culture,
    laws, and policies that treat them as lesser human beings. Social isolation,
    harassment, and internalized homophobia are a few of the disparities they
    experience. They also frequently encounter denial of rights, as with laws prohibiting
    same-sex unions, discrimination in the workplace, and denial of federal benefits.
    Most of us are aware that our religious beliefs and the Family Code of the
    Philippines prevent the approval of same-sex marriage in our country. Eight out of
    ten households in the Philippines are Catholics. It is also stated in the Family Code of
    the Philippines that it only recognizes marriages between "a man and a woman."
    Moreover, there are still people who are ignorant of the LGBTQ+ community, which
    is why there is still a stigma among those belonging to the mentioned community.
    Despite those, I still agree with legalizing marriage among homosexuals and
    transgender people. We all deserve equal rights, regardless of our gender, and
    freedom to choose who we want to marry. It is not like the approval of same-sex
    marriage would greatly impact my personal life. In fact, there is already an Asian
    country that has legalized same-sex marriage—Taiwan. It struck down a law defining
    marriage as being between a man and a woman. Significant reductions in visits to
    medical and mental health care services along with reduced expenses on mental
    health care are one of the positive effects of the approval of same-sex marriage in
    Taiwan. Everyone is entitled to happiness in life. We are already in the 21st century,
    so we should stop gender-based discrimination and be open to change. We should
    spread more awareness and knowledge to enlighten those who are still ignorant of
    the LGBTQ+ community.
