Answer:

Same sex marriage should be allowed.

Explanation:

Same sex marriage should be allowed because, to deny some people the option to marry would be discriminatory and would create a bad sigma. Same-sex couples should have access to the same benefits enjoyed by heterosexual married couples.

As well as discrimination based on sexual orientation, gay marriage bans discriminated based on one’s sex. As David S. Cohen, JD, Associate Professor at the Drexel University School of Law, explained, “Imagine three people—Nancy, Bill, and Tom… Nancy, a woman, can marry Tom, but Bill, a man, cannot… Nancy can do something (marry Tom) that Bill cannot, simply because Nancy is a woman and Bill is a man.”

Married couples also have access to protections if the relationship ends, such as child custody, spousal or child support, and an equitable division of property. Additionally, legal same-sex marriage comes with mental and physical health benefits. The American Psychological Association, American Psychiatric Association, and others concluded that legal gay marriage gives couples “access to the social support that already facilitates and strengthens heterosexual marriages, with all of the psychological and physical health benefits associated with that support.” And isn't that what we need right now?

A 2010 analysis found that after their states had banned gay marriage, gay, lesbian and bisexual people suffered a 37% increase in mood disorders, a 42% increase in alcohol-use disorders, and a 248% increase in generalized anxiety disorders.

Gay marriages bring financial gain to federal, state, and local governments, and boost the economy. That being because more people would be able to be married.

Legal marriage is a secular institution that should not be limited by religious objections to same-sex marriage. Religious institutions can decline to marry gay and lesbian couples if they wish, but they should not dictate marriage laws for society at large.

The concept of “traditional marriage” has changed over time, and the idea that the definition of marriage has always been between one man and one woman is historically inaccurate.

Gay marriage is a civil right protected by the US Constitution’s commitments to liberty and equality, and is an internationally recognized human right for all people.

Marriage is not only for procreation, otherwise infertile couples or couples not wishing to have children would be prevented from marrying. Ability or desire to create offspring has never been a qualification for marriage. From 1970 through 2012 roughly 30% of all US households were married couples without children, and in 2012, married couples without children outnumbered married couples with children by 9%.

___ is the process of gathering objective information.
Tamiku [17]

Answer: A

Explanation:

Because the word inference means "a conclusion reached on the basis of evidence and reasoning." This means that when the question asks the process of gathering objective information you would make inferences. Summarizing is when you give/tell the overall idea or the point of a text someone/something. Making observations is almost the same so if this is wrong it is probably D.
