Gay marriage, also known as same-sex marriage, is the marriage between two people of the same sex. The Australian government outlawed same-sex marriage when it passed the Marriage Act of 1961. The act stated that the government would not recognise same-sex marriages, traditional Aboriginal marriages or polygamous marriages. In 2016 the leaders of Australia’s major political parties voiced their support for legalizing same-sex marriage though a formal bill has yet to be introduced.
Allow marriage but only if they have declared they are homosexuals at least 2-3 years prior in an official way.Also make it compulsory to declare homosexuality to prevent them getting in to a heterosexual relationship or prevent marrying a opposite sex.

Making it so a group in society to register themselves, has never gone well, also they are gay, why would they date the opposite sex, does this mean straight people have to register themselves so they don't date the opposite sex
@4ZLMVSB4yrs4Y
Legalise same-sex marriage, and hold the Catholic church accountable for all of the child abuse cases. The hypocrisy is outstanding...
Get rid of marriage and other slavery contracts
We LGBT people are wasting our time and money on this issue. Marriage is the least way we are neglected by society when you consider wider problems that lead to our oppression. It won't talk us down from the rooftop.
@8C8T6B24yrs4Y
No, believing in gay rights is against our lord and savior, JESUS CHRIST
@9FK24ZM8mos8MO
Yes as they contribute to tax
@9D55ZWK9mos9MO
@8YLV9KWOne Nation2yrs2Y
No this goes against God
@8RJQ7573yrs3Y
I believe that you can love who you want and marry who you want. but I do not support the things that they follow.
@8LM5WCH4yrs4Y
Not exactly, but I respect same sex marriages just don't agree with them

@8FXY5V9One Nation4yrs4Y
Gay marriage is a tool to undermine Western Civilization with the destruction of the family unit.
People are free to do whatever they please, however, it goes against the teachings of my religion so I don't agree with it .

it is each to their own , it doesnt really bother me
@92R63GN2yrs2Y
Yes, it's just two people of the same gender who love each other, it's just like a straight marriage but same gender.
@92JZ2MP2yrs2Y
Yes as well as polyamorous marriage
I believe any gender-to-gender relationships and sex marriage with, and with no consent to the government or society, complete up to the people that are in the relationship together.
Personally in my opinion I don`t but they have every right to do what they like. So yes but as long as they don't disrupt to those whom religions and culture have grown up to reject lgbtq+ and to be like that. If they population of same sex marriage rises their could be a problem of human reproduction so really depends on the situation.
@9JPP255One Nation3mos3MO
I don’t really know. As long as it doesn’t have anything to do with me, I’m fine with it but I’m not really for those things and stuff so yeah. As long as I’m not included in the mess, I’m fine.

@966W7S72yrs2Y
its their choice it cant be controlled it should be their decision although a marriage is traditionally man and women and is in Christian belief that it shouldn't be allowed
@93TR9N82yrs2Y
No, marriage is Overrated
@93JNG3T2yrs2Y
@936635F2yrs2Y
YES! The government and any religion shouldn't even be involved with this matter and it should have never been illegal. It should be up to the individual and their decisions, not anyone else, not the government and not religion. It should have never been illegal.
@9353BBF2yrs2Y
Yes; those in same sex relationships should maintain the right to both have their relationship legally recognised, and access to the supportive, and stable, family structure marriage provides.
@934YQRM2yrs2Y
No, marriage should be defined as between a man and a woman. However be entitled to exactly the same rights. Change the word "marriage" to another word voted by the sam sex themselves
@934TVRY2yrs2Y
The marriage between individuals is not something for others to vote on
@934J2B62yrs2Y
Marriage shouldn’t be a thing.
There should be a law that says something like if you live together in a relationship with someone for 12 months then you legally bound together.
Who with who is up to the people and this law would apply to anybody.
@934554M2yrs2Y
Yes, but provide marriage celebrants not based in religions so they don’t have to make them go against their beliefs
@933X8MV2yrs2Y
only if your willing to be proud of yourself
@933L7D32yrs2Y
Yes and who cares what anyone is doing, us talking about this is wasting time and its a little offensive to others who choose to live differently to what we have considered to be normal.
Yes, but it shouldn't be called marriage.
