The marriage controversy between people of the same sex is also known as gay or lesbian marriage or same-gender marriage. Same sex marriage is the social, cultural and legal recognition that regulate the relation and coexistence of two people of the same sex, with equal requirements and effects that exist in the different sex marriage.
Many western countries have legalized or decriminalized the homosexuality at least, following recommendations of the European Parliament and the Council of Europe. Several European countries (Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Slovenia, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Denmark, Austria, Portugal, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Hungary, Spain, the Croatia, Czech Republic and some regions of Italy) have changed their laws so that the gay couples have the right to marriage or to enjoy an equivalent protection. Several states allow the homosexuals to adopt children.
The gay marriage controversy grants the spouses, and to the families who these form, the total equality of rights and obligations to which they emanate of the conventional marriage or between people of different sex, with the intention of allowing to the constitution of unions and stable homo relation families, and to eliminate all form of discrimination and prejudice towards the gay controversy.
