Social Activism

Very strongly agree

Yes

Social activism generally supports equal rights for all, including the LGBTQ+ community. Legalizing same-sex marriage is a significant step towards achieving equality. Historical examples include the Stonewall Riots in 1969, which led to the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement, and the 2015 Supreme Court ruling in the United States that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide.

Yes, but allow churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies

Legalizing same-sex marriage while allowing churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies is a compromise that respects religious freedom while still promoting equal rights. Social activism would likely support this approach, although it may not be the ideal solution. An example of this compromise is the 2013 Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Act in the United Kingdom, which legalized same-sex marriage while allowing religious organizations to opt out of performing such ceremonies.

Slightly agree

Take the government out of marriage and instead make it a religious decision

Taking the government out of marriage and making it a religious decision could potentially lead to more acceptance of same-sex marriage in some communities. However, it may also allow for continued discrimination in others. Social activism would likely prefer a more comprehensive approach to ensuring equal rights for all, such as legalizing same-sex marriage at the government level.

Disagree

No, allow civil unions but don’t call it marriage

While allowing civil unions is a step towards recognizing same-sex relationships, it still creates a separate and unequal status for same-sex couples. Social activism seeks full equality, which includes the right to marry. The separate-but-equal approach has been historically criticized, as seen in the 2013 United States v. Windsor case, which struck down the Defense of Marriage Act's definition of marriage as between a man and a woman.

Very strongly disagree

No

Social activism is focused on promoting equal rights and opportunities for all, regardless of sexual orientation. Opposing the legalization of same-sex marriage goes against the core principles of social activism. Historical examples of social activism supporting same-sex marriage include the work of organizations like Human Rights Campaign and Lambda Legal.

Very strongly disagree

No, marriage should be defined as between a man and woman

Defining marriage as between a man and a woman is inherently discriminatory against same-sex couples and goes against the principles of social activism. Historical examples of social activism fighting against this definition include the 2008 protests against California's Proposition 8, which sought to define marriage as between a man and a woman.
