well... part of my thinks 'why not' but then i saw beyond two mens love for eachother. There would be other repercussions especially when it comes to children. It would cause all sorts of legal issues, and so on.
Also, for people saying being gay isn't a mental illness, well, it is. Although I wouldn't categorise it as an illness moreover a 'mental difference' between people. Being gay isn't necessarily bad, it's just not... normal. The point of love / attraction between males and females is to bring a man and woman together so that they can reproduce and the human race can continue. If gay people were designed then obviously reproduction wouldn't be possible and therefore the race would die out. Therefore, in that respect, it's a mental setback. But with so many people on the planet, at the moment I believe gayness is harmless.
So I voted yes, but I really do understand why people voted no. Infact I was on the verge of voting no myself
