Gay marriage is a controversial topic and
people
 divide into 2 types referring to
this
 question: the ones who believe that it can bring about many detrimental issues and the others who think
that is
 quite normal and a right for
people
 to opt for.
This
 essay will discuss my take on
this
 why gay
marriages
 should not be legal.
First
 and foremost, taking into consideration that women and men are naturally born different and differ not only physically but psychologically I believe that a family should consist of a male and a female, so I am on the side of
people
 who think that
this
 kind of
marriages
 might really have hazardous effects in general,
therefore
 gay
marriages
 should not be allowed,
this
 I say by being very tolerant to LGBT community. There are countries that have already made gay
marriages
 legal,

 I guess that a kid should be raised by both a man and a woman.
For instance
, being brought up by a gay couple might bring a lot of trauma for children
such
 as they might become isolated and labelled as well as do not receive the proper care that a female mother or male father could handle. To conclude,
although
 some
people
 guess that gay nuptials should be legal and even some countries have adopted
this
 as a low, I myself strongly believe that marriage should not be legal as males and females have different peculiarities and there comes an issue of kids that should properly be brought up by males and females.
