CHAPTER I
PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
Same-sex marriage became an increasingly prominent issue in the United
States after the Hawaii Supreme Court held in 1993 that the state's ban on
same-sex marriage was unconstitutional. In 1996, Congress enacted and
President Clinton signed into law that the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA).
Section 3 of DOMA defined marriage for purposes of administering federal
law as the legal union between one man and one woman as husband and
wife, and further defined the term spouse as a person of the opposite sex who
is a husband or wife.
Introduction
Same-sex marriage, also known as gay marriage, is marriage between people
of the same sex, either as a secular civil ceremony or in a religious setting. The
term marriage equality refers to a political status in which same-sex marriage
and opposite-sex marriage are considered legally equal.

CP No.: 09183450424/ 09061860907
Same-sex marriage laws has varied by jurisdiction, being variously
accomplished through legislative change to marriage laws, a court ruling
based on constitutional guarantees of equality, or by direct popular vote (via
ballot initiative or referendum). The recognition of same-sex marriage is a
political and social issue, and also a religious issue in many countries, and
debates continue to arise over whether people in same-sex relationships
should be allowed marriage or some similar status (a civil union).
Same-sex marriage can provide those in same-sex relationships who pay their
taxes with government services and make financial demands on them
comparable to those afforded to and required of those in opposite-sex
marriages. Same-sex marriage also gives them legal protections such as
inheritance and hospital visitation rights. Various faith communities around
the world support allowing those of the same sex to marry, while many major
religions oppose same-sex marriage. Opponents of same-sex marriages have
argued that recognition of same-sex marriages would erode religious
freedoms, undermine a right of children to be raised by their biological
mother and father or erode the institution of marriage itself.

CP No.: 09183450424/ 09061860907
Some analysts state that financial, psychological and physical well-being are
enhanced by marriage, and that children of same-sex parents or careers
benefit from being raised by two parents within a legally recognized union
supported by society's institutions. A court document filed by the American
Anthropological Association stated that reversing enacted SSM legislation
served to single out gay men and women as ineligible for marriage, thereby
both stigmatizing and inviting public discrimination against them.
The American Anthropological Association asserts that social science research
does not support the view that either civilization or viable social orders
depend upon marriage as an exclusively heterosexual institution.
In the late 20th century, rites of marriage for same-sex couples without legal
recognition became increasingly common. The first law providing for
marriage of people of the same sex in modern times was enacted in 2000 in
the Netherlands and came into force in 2001. As of 20 December 2017, same-
sex marriage is legally recognized (nationwide or in some parts) in the
following countries: Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Colombia,

Chapter II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
Local
Marriage is both ubiquitous and central. All across our country, in
every region, every social class, every race and ethnicity, every religion or
non-religion, people get married. For many if not most people, moreover,
marriage is not a trivial matter. It is a key to the pursuit of happiness,
something people aspire to—and keep aspiring to, again and again, even
when their experience has been far from happy. To be told “You cannot get
married” is thus to be excluded from one of the defining rituals of the
American life cycle. The keys to the kingdom of the married might have been
held only by private citizens—religious bodies and their leaders, families,
other parts of civil society. So it has been in many societies throughout
history. In the United States, however, as in most modern nations,
government holds those keys. Even if people have been married by their
church or religious group, they are not married in the sense that really counts
for social and political purposes unless they have been granted a marriage
9
CP No.: 09183450424/ 09061860907
license by the state. Unlike private actors, however, the state doesn’t have
complete freedom to decide who may and may not marry. The state’s
involvement raises fundamental issues about equality of political and civic
standing. Same-sex marriage is currently one of the most divisive political
issues in our nation. In November 2008, Californians passed Proposition 8, a
referendum that removed the right to marry from same-sex couples who had
been granted that right by the courts. This result has been seen by the same-
sex community as deeply degrading. More recently, Iowa and Vermont have
legalized same-sex marriage, the former through judicial interpretation of the
state constitution, the latter through legislation. Analyzing this issue will help
us understand what is happening in our country, and where we might go
from here. Before we approach the issue of same-sex marriage, we must
define marriage. But marriage, it soon becomes evident, is no single thing. It
is plural in both content and meaning. The institution of marriage houses and
supports several distinct aspects of human life: sexual relations, friendship
and companionship, love, conversation, procreation and child-rearing,
mutual responsibility. Marriages can exist without each of these. (We have
10
CP No.: 09183450424/ 09061860907
always granted marriage licenses to sterile people, people too old to have
children, irresponsible people, and people incapable of love and friendship.
Impotence, lack of interest in sex, and refusal to allow intercourse may count
as grounds for divorce, but they don’t preclude marriage.) Marriages can exist
even in cases where none of these is present, though such marriages are
probably unhappy. Each of these important aspects of human life, in turn, can
exist outside of marriage, and they can even exist all together outside of
marriage, as is evident from the fact that many unmarried couples live lives
of intimacy, friendship, and mutual responsibility, and have and raise
children. Nonetheless, when people ask themselves what the content of
marriage is, they typically think of this cluster of things. Nor is the meaning
of marriage single. Marriage has, first, a civil rights aspect. Married people get
a lot of government benefits that the unmarried usually do not get: favorable
treatment in tax, inheritance, and insurance status; immigration rights; rights
in adoption and custody; decisional and visitation rights in health care and
burial; the spousal privilege exemption when giving testimony in court; and
yet others.

Foreign
According to Godoy 2012 gay marriage has been legalized in the
District of Columbia and 7 U.S Vermont being the first to recognize legal
equality in the civil marriage laws and to protect the religious societies
authorized to solemnize civil marriages. The laws then came into effect on
September 1, 2009. In Vermont the Supreme Court ruling in the Baker v.
Vermont that same-sex couples had a constitutional right to access the
benefits of marriage stated in the (New York Times).Massachusetts issued its
opinion that banning gay marriage arbitrarily infringed on the individual,
reversing a lower courts decision to uphold the ban. Massachusetts began
issuing marriage license on May 17, 2004. As a result of the Supreme Judicial
Court of Massachusetts ruling Goodridge V. Department of public Health
stated in (New York Times). Connecticut Supreme Court overruling the
decision of a lower court who had found in favor of the state. Stated in the
(New York Times) the Supreme Court found that prohibiting gay marriage
violated the constitution guarantees of equal protection. Same-sex marriage
12
CP No.: 09183450424/ 09061860907
couples were issued marriage licenses starting from October 28, 2008. Iowa
wanted to ban same-sex marriage as well. However, the ruling came in the
case of Vamon v. Brien in which the Supreme Court upheld a lower court
ruling that said that there was no compelling government interest in denying
same-sex marriage stated in (New York Times). Weeks later after they were
trying to decide whether or not should the state should ban gay marriage,
their licenses were issued April 27, 2009. They made the case for equality in
Iowa. New Hampshire had gone through several permutations so as to satisfy
Gov. Lynch’s desire that the rights of religious institutions to deny marriage
related services to same-sex couples be explicitly mentioned. They then
recognized the same marriages from other jurisdiction being were gay
marriages was already legalized (New York Times). The law came into effect
on January 1, 2010. Gay marriage has been an issue that has become a huge
discussion in America today. Same-sex marriage, considering marriage
between two persons of the same biological sex or gender identity. There are
people that are for gay marriage and against it, there are also some states that
have passed gay marriage laws and other states that have not, and the 2012

presidential election has also become a part of this big issue with gay
marriage. With gay marriage having two different sides to it, this literature
review will focus on three questions on the topic gay marriage.

SUMMARY, RECOMMENDATION, CONCLUSION
SUMMARY
Same sex marriage is very hot issue in our country today. Same-sex
marriage can provide those in same-sex relationships who pay their taxes
with government services and make financial demands on them comparable
to those afforded to and required of those in opposite-sex marriages. Same-
sex marriage also gives them legal protections such as inheritance and
hospital visitation rights. Various faith communities around the world
support allowing those of the same sex to marry, while many major religions
oppose same-sex marriage. Opponents of same-sex marriages have argued
that recognition of same-sex marriages would erode religious freedoms,
23
CP No.: 09183450424/ 09061860907
undermine a right of children to be raised by their biological mother and
father or erode the institution of marriage itself.
RECOMMENDATION
 To those LGBT do what they want but also know their role and
limitation in the society.
 To those LGBT even they are judging by the other people, try to avoid
them and avoid get in trouble and create misunderstanding.
 To the readers stop looking them by their outlook appearance, judge
them by their kind heart.
CONCLUSSION
We conclude that LGBT people are having a role in the society even
though people bullied them. And LGBT have a role in the society that they
need to come up with it. Stop judging and bullied them because they are
also a human that they need to respect.
