Same sex marriage

Hi there!
So, me (Daniela Mendes) and Inês (Aguiar) are going to talk about same sex marriage.
This is a very controverse topic and we hope to create a interesting discussion tomorrow in the class.
Did you know that homossexuality is still considered a crime?
That is law in aprox. 80 countries, and in some of them, it is given death penalty.
Here in Portugal, the law and legislation concerning this topic is very vague - but the law to accept same sex marriage has been revoked too many times.

This topic causes a tremendous debate whether in news channels or in political assemblies.
In the religious area - many catolics see homossexuality as a sin and against God's will.

What about you?
Are you for or against same sex marriage?
Do you think that same sex couples are entitled to adopt a child too?
Justify your opinion, please.

Hi people!


We have to discuss our presentation here before we discuss it on class so, our presentation (mine and Icaro's ) is about a recent and polemic event on the past 22nd October when a girl, Geyse Arruda enrolled with the Uniban, São Paulo, Brazil was hooted down by her colleagues and sent down of the college just because she was wearing a short skirt.
The main questions are:

Was she really offending someone? Liberal or conservative values?
Why was she sent down? The college should be partial or impartial in such a case? Was it partial or impartial?


we expect you to like the theme and to discuss it with us.
