Same sex marriages

Should same sex marriages be legal? Many people are against same sex marriages, and I kind of just wanted to hear some views on this issue. In my beliefs, who I am to stop someone from being happy? I think that everyone should just do what makes them happy, even if that means marrying the same sex.

I remember when I didn't think this way, which actually wasn't too long ago. My mom's friends sister has a partner of the same sex and I remember listening to my mom and her friend talking about her sister and her partner and how happy the two of them are.

Recently, they both were pregnant and had kids, and at first I just thought that it was going to be so hard for the kids as they grew up, and hard for the couple to explain things to their children. Since, I was around the couple, I realize that my opinion before was rude and selfish. They're just two people doing what makes them happy.

I think same sex marriages should be legal. If the person is happen and it's their choice then way not. Who are we to say what is right and wrong? America is the land of the free i believe that it should stand up to that. No one should tell anybody that they can not marry because it is not the opposite sex.
