Recently, amendments to the law permitting Same-sex marriage are spreading all over the world. Then I thought ''Why it is not acceptable in Japan?' So I chose the topic of Same-sex Marriage.
Do you agree with Same-sex marriage? I agree. Because I think that people should value the diversity of people.
Miho thinks Same-sex marriage is good. The reason is that we should respect homosexual freedom. On the other hand, My mother thinks Same-sex marriage is not good. The reason is because of the declining birth rate. I felt that opinions were split among generations.
First, I searched what kind of opinion the Japanese have on same-sex marriage. Because I wanted to know not only my personal belongings but also the opinions of Japan as a whole. This is the result of a questionnaire about Do you agree with Same-sex marriage? For 2,600 men and women between 20 and 79 years old. 51% said agree, 49% said disagree. 71% who said “agree” were people in their twenties, It was a very high percentage. But The dissenting opinion increased as the age increased, and in the 70s only 24% of people responded that they agreed.
In the younger generation, there were many opinions that “I think that it is good if you love each other” and “I think that everyone has the right to marry equally”. But People in their 50s and older had many opinions that 'traditional families are lost'. The difference in recognition among generations was highlighted.
Second, I’ll introduce countries where homosexuality is recognized. There are 24 countries. It was recognized for the first time in the Netherlands in 2001 and has continued to increase the number one after another, such as in Belgium, Spain Canada, and so on. Next year, Austria and Taiwan which is the first in Asia will be accepted.
However, in some countries, homosexuals are in violation of the law as opposed to these countries. There are 80 countries. For example, For example, Myanmar, Jamaica, Brunei, Pakistan, Bhutan, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Singapore, and so on. are mainly found in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. In some cases, the death penalty is carried out in some countries.
For example Saudi Arabia, Iran, Sudan, Somalia, Yemen, Mauritania, Afghanistan, Pakistan, the United Arab Emirates, Chechen Republic, North Korea, and so on. The reason is that it is frequent in countries such as Islam, but the laws of the countries where homosexuality is death are related to sodomy. In Iran, more than 4,000 homosexuals were sentenced to death in 1979 when the Islamic Revolution occurred.
Third, I'll introduce the “Partnership System”. Same-sex marriage is not acceptable in Japan. But It has a Partnership System in Japan. Partnership System is the ordinance stipulating to issue of a certificate that recognizes same-sex couples as 'relationships equivalent to marriage' and makes each other a “partner”.
It started in Shibuya Ward and Setagaya Ward in 2005. Currently, This system is established by 9 municipalities such as Naha City, Sapporo City, and Osaka City. Also, Currently, Chiba City and Minato-ku are trying to introduce this system.
Fourth, I'll introduce the advantages and disadvantages. Advantages are Spouse deduction, heritage inheritance, the adoption of the adoption system, property distribution, and so on.
Disadvantages are declining birthrate progress, exploitation of the Marriage System Impact on children's development, and so on.
Fifth, “Tokyo Rainbow Pride”. This is A group aimed at “a society where LGBT, a so-called sexual minority is not exposed to discrimination and prejudice and can live positively,” and a general term for the event. In major cities around the world including Western countries, sexual minority parade events called 'pride' are held annually as annual events. Some of them have a huge scale to record mobilization of 1 million to 3 million people, such as New York and Sao Paulo. In Japan, A parade was held at Yoyogi Park in May this year. This year, the largest number of participants, 150,000 people participated in the event. More than 200 booths including companies, NPOs, embassies, community associations, and restaurants were exhibited. Also, Ayumi Hamasaki's life was held. It was a very exciting event.
Finally, I thought that opinions on Same-sex marriage differed by the country and people. I introduced some advantages. But, I thought that the advantage of No. 1 was to reduce the burden on homosexual minds. Also, I thought that introducing the same-sex marriage system would deepen our understanding of homosexuality among people. So I pray that it will be introduced.
