Our team is composed of: Speaker one, Marcelo Araneda
Speaker two, Camila Cisternas Speaker three, Constanza Norambuena and Summary Speaker, Nicols Perines We are in favor of the motion homosexual people should have the same rights as heterosexual ones. I would like to start defining the concept of homosexuality; Homosexuality is a sexual orientation that is defined as the interaction or attraction affective, emotional, and sexual toward individuals of the same sex. But. Why homosexuality is a controversial theme? Homosexuality is a condition that often generates discrimination, in fact, up until about 20 years ago, this sexual condition was considered a mental illness by the World Health Organization, but after serious psychiatric research, this absurd assertion, was discarded. The rights of homosexuals differ of respect to the country of residence, for example in highly developed countries such as Denmark, Netherlands and New Zealand, all the inhabitants of the country have the same rights, regardless of their sexual orientation. Rights as a marriage between persons of the same sex and adoption by gay couples, are legal in these countries. This talks about an inclusive, equal and developed society for all its inhabitants. On the other hand, in some countries the homosexuals did not have the same rights as everyone else, and in others are persecuted by their condition, , sent to prison, and up to sentenced to death An example where the homosexuals dont have the same rights as the other is our country, Chile. In Chile the equal marriage and adoption by gay couples, is not allowed. Considering the results of the 2012 census, in Chile exist 810,189 gay or bisexuals men and 853,271 lesbians or bisexuals women. Census in 2012 showed in addition that 20,747 women and 14,229 men recognize live with a same-sex partner in Chile In addition to the many protests that support the rights of homosexuals in Chile, Where in the last protest was attended by more than 50,000 people, is a clear demonstration that in our country should be legalized the equal marriage and adoption for gay couples . THE PEOPLE ARE DEMANDING THEIR RIGHTS! To finish i would like to pose a question to the group against, ,
why homosexuals should have fewer rights than the other, if they are human beings equal to all?
