How would it feel if heterosexuals had their rights taken away? Homosexuals cannot do many things that heterosexuals can do because of their sexuality. Gays should be able to have the same rights as heterosexuals. This article will discuss what rights are being taken away from them, what they are unable to do, and the impact it has had on heterosexual individuals. Although gay rights may occur in some states, they are more often discriminated against in most of the world. Let's talk about the human rights taken away from homosexuals. Religious rights are taken away from homosexuals; their marital rights are also taken away. Everyone thinks gays are a sin and can't be Christians. They believe that if gays get married, homosexuals are discriminated against every day because of their sexuality. Some hide their sexuality so they don't have to worry about being discriminated against. Studies show that homosexuals are more likely to commit suicide than heterosexuals due to their sexuality. They turn to professional gay therapists to help them feel less isolated. They surround themselves with loved ones who support their sexuality. They join groups that help address discrimination against their sexuality (Tracy). Homosexuals experience discrimination at work and how they can get fired for it. Even children at school are discriminated against by their peers because of their sexuality. Some parents of sexually diverse children also often discriminate against them. They deal with the situation by talking about it with other individuals of the same sex. Some homosexuals keep it to themselves, so no one will know their true sexuality.

Gays who engage in it think they can change who they are. In some areas, individuals are open to their sexuality, in others they are too afraid of being hated. Most people think that gays are born that way and that they should have the freedom to do whatever they want. Others think they should be in prison and go to conversion camps, so they can be “normal.” Parents never understand why their children are the way they are, but most of them support them anyway. In most cases, families have at least one member who is gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender. Homosexuals are everywhere and should be able to enjoy all the freedom and equality that heterosexuals enjoy. People don't understand why gays exist and they don't understand why anyone would want to be homosexual. Homosexuals are people too and should be treated equally, just as people of different races should. In 2014, Americans are starting to support same-sex rights and the fact that they should all be equal. Parents are starting to have same-sex neighbors and they don't care. Children become good friends with them and their parents don't think there is anything wrong with that. There are groups that try to help homosexuals gain freedom and equality.
