Same sex marriage

Here is my opinion about same sex marriage: Two persons of the same sex can be together as partner, or let's call them a couple, until the end. But marriage should not be the center of their love story. Falling in love with someone who is the same sex as you are, is absolutely okay. But this should not be the main reason to get married. I believe that marriage is only for man and woman, to form a family to raise children in a protected environment. If you just fall in love but do not intend to form a family to raise kids together, you don't need a marriage. Same sex couples, for biological reasons, will not bear babies, and an official adoption into a gay or lesbian relationship is very uncommon in the Philippines, as we are a very traditional country. Hence I don't think an official marriage for a same sex couple is needed.

There are many couple, even with childrens, who have never been married to their partner. I am not saying this is good for the children. But I know some Hollywood couples who have a loving relationship without being married, and since they are rich, there is no disadvantage for their children. As we can see, they don't need marriage to love each other. Similar, I think that same sex couples don't need marriage to be happy.
