Lesbian, gay and transgender people have existed for centuries. This is not a new trend.
I support LGBT rights with no hesitation. In civilised countries the argument has already been won, and it has been wonderful to see the recent outpouring of support for the LGBT cause from so many members of society. Of course, there still exist backward parts of the world where objections have been raised, but maybe one day they will wake up. Homophobia is a bankrupt cause in the marketplace of ideas, with just as much justification as racism or anti-Semitism.
The way things are going might go like this :mmokay:...
2015: Same gender marriage legalized
Great.
2020: Right to marry animals
An animal can't give consent, so I don't think this will ever become legal.
2025: Father can marry daughter
This is a difficult question. Incest is a repulsive thought to most of us, but it's not clear that there is any moral justification for criminalising consenting adults who engage in it.
The American basketball player Dennis Rodman has already done this. He married himself in 1996.
