Understanding "homosexuality" and the recognition of Gay Rights

     Firstly, it should be repeated that “Homosexuality cannot be classified as an illness but a variation of sexual function created by a certain arrest of sexual development”. People usually think that homosexual men always have softer voices while lesbians’ body shape is masculine. But actually not always some secondary sexual characteristics resemble the opposite sex. There are also some assumptions that people are gay because they choose to be gay but it is totally wrong. Because of the direction of our attraction is not something that can be changed quickly like switching lights on and off, so mostly the formation of homosexuality comes from many different factors (for example: significant negative experiences from childhood, family situation, moral training a child receive, etc.)
      As being gay is very natural so preventing people from living with their true sexuality is such a violation of religious freedom. They have the right to be protected by law and hold all the interests like other straight people including getting married. The relationship or marriage of homosexual couples cannot be discriminated, and then there have been more countries that recognize that fact and moving up to accept it .

     Even some nations have not changed their rule yet, but actually their law still give the protection to LGBT community. In the USA, any criminalizing homosexual conduct may be listed to be unconstitutional which bring more support to LGBT community. Or in London where a mayor step named Boris Johnson took a campaign to pull Anti-Gay advert from Bus. All of these actions take significant part in proving that being gay is such a natural phenomenon in society. So, asking yourself that if one of you family members or your friends suddenly came out and announced that they are Gay, you would get shocked. Even you cannot accept the fact then trying to convince them to turn back "normally" but you would never want to see other people hurting your beloved family or friends. So why do not you do a small favour to LGBT including your by accepting their existence in society, giving them a chance to reach a true happiness?

      Here is the speech of United Nations's General Secretary Ban Ki-Moon calling for countries all around the world stop the discrimination of homosexuality, bisexuality and transgenders. For the very first time, the leader of the largest international organization has launched a clear message showing his support to LGBT community. It is also the view of the UN by putting more actions to solve the discriminated problem.
