Jack and Bill have opened my eyes


After reading a Classmates blog called, “Jack and Jill.....or Jack and Bill?”. It opened my eyes to new ideas of gay marriage. I am not saying I was completely oblivious to what is going on in the government about it but I think the author has some pretty good points.
First off, when the author writes about family values and how they could change. Her answer to that is what hasn’t changed family values? I could not agree more. Everything that we encounter on a daily basis can change family values. Like the shows we watch to the clothes we wear can all affect family values.
Another point that the author made that really opened my eyes was when she talked about the children. She says that the kids aren’t going to be anymore affected by gay marriage any more than a straight marriage would. I never really thought about the children of this issue before so It was nice to see a fresh perspective on it. She also says that the average family has been changing and now is commonly acceptable to have grandparents raise grand children or single parents raising children. So what is the difference if two loving men that have love in a household than only having one parent? As long as there is love in the household, then honestly, who cares who raises the child?
I thought this blog was a great and that is surely did open my eyes to certain matters and I could not agree more with her!!
