According to ISTANDWITH Gay Marriage Poll Results close to 67% throughout the U.S agreed with the legalization of same-sex marriage, with the ability to allow churches to refuse it as a right and be able to respect their beliefs. However, close to 33% didn’t agree to remark that marriage should have the opportunity to be between two people who share the same sex, but only between a man and a woman. Some other research has shown that the state of Illinois mostly agrees with same-sex marriage with a 71% overall while 29% is only against. Furthermore, if we go into more deeply into the poll investigation, the category of race indicates that white people rank into a 65% position against black people 68% who agree with this type of marriage. Moving on, if we focus on education levels close 78% of people who earn a Doctorates approve with it in comparison with students who are in Junior High (less than High School) come up with a 65%. As a conclusion factors like race, income, and education can be factors that affect people’s opinions towards a social issue. Legalization of same-sex marriage is a polemic with what we still struggle to accept nowadays because of people who want to preserve their beliefs. However, research has shown that same-sex marriage ‘should’ be legalized since the differences between both sides are quite significant and reasonable to make the decision.
