legalizing same-sex marriage would likely be a symbolic step of acceptance towards homosexuality that would promote more people to admit to being gay, or for bisexual persons to choose a same-sex partner, so it could lead to more openingly gay people.
I agree with you on this.
Erm.. to be honest, I didn't phrase it correctly. For the 'more and more people will be gay' part- Their exact words are: If same-sex marriages are legalized, more straight men and women will turn gay. Which will in turn, reduce the world's human population.
What I was trying to say was- just because same-sex marriages are legalized, it dosn't mean that people will turn gay! But it will make gay or bisexual people be more open about it because it's accepted in our society. Being gay or straight isn't something that can be controlled with a switch of a button. You have to be gay to be gay.
