Words Aren't Just a Word My former classmate asks me for an interview, it's a school activity regarding the issue of same-sex marriage. *The question is whether we agree/disagree with the idea of same-sex marriage.* I took the side of "disagree" and our other friend took the "agree" part. I am not that good when it comes to explaining my thoughts, so please bear with my idea as I deliver it through a written explanation. There were only two existing genders: male and female, so the introduction of same-sex marriage, in my opinion, is a mockery of the existing gender. It's true, they say, because that's what the bible says, and those are the only two genders that God created. When it comes to different types of sexuality, I respect the concept, but I don't agree with why it's necessary to set the level of hetero relationship in a homosexual relationship that appears to be the same for everyone. Aside from that, does the wedding appear to be taking place because one of these two will act like a woman or a man, perhaps so they have a top and bottom idea when they get to a more intimate level? Normalizing this type of unnatural act may give the children the impression that such a concept is acceptable, well in my belief it may be bad but we could let them discover it as they grow older maybe. Well, he elaborated on what I've said before, which is that "there are two prior genders," which is true in principle, but that each individual has the freedom to choose how they act, not just based on their biological gender. While he was explaining, I felt ashamed of my response because, after all, what he was saying had a good point; well, being human isn't always about gender; perhaps I discriminate against the idea too much. At the end of the night, I realized that gender isn't always a good indicator of success. I may believe that belief myself, but maybe it's better if I just keep my mouth shut especially when the topic was too sensitive to talk about because we didn't realize that the more we speak, the more we hurt the feelings of those around us. I had plenty of friends who is part of the community and I don't want to make them feel like I despise them, of course, I wanted to support them on what could make them happy. Maybe I shouldn't deliver my answer like that in the interview since it's too broad and harsh, I just realized that I am the one who should open my mind to such an idea since being a person won't measure how manly or feminine are you. Well as by the saying *"If you don't want to hear it from the other's then don't say it by yourself first"*. Just think first before we speak we never know how each of our words can be so destructive for the mental health of others, just learn to respect each other's opinions since we all have different views. **Disclaimer:** I am neither a psychologist nor a financial advisor, and all of my pieces were done for entertainment purposes only.
