Need help with objective and subjective concerns of gay marriage

I have to write a relatively short paper tonight forr social problems class. I have been given the topic gay marriage. i am supposed to write 2 pages on the objective concerns (facts of gay marriage) and 1 page on subjective concerns (my opinion, or since this is supposed to be devils advocate paper, why OTHER people are against it).

I am for gay marriage, but I have to be factual or I will not get the points. I just wondered where to starts with facts, I have to be correct. Any help would be appreciated, its not a long paper, so I don't have to get into details. I guess I should take the stance of a tbm who believes that gay marriage is wrong for the subjective part.

If you jsut list it, I can write it . I don't have to use sources for this, just what is out there.

thanks

Re: Need help with objective and subjective concerns of gay marriage

Subjective part-just a couple of concerns of some anti's

some people feel a gay person will recruit more boys to be gay.

some people feel gays showing their sexuality in public is unChristian

some people feel gays can't raise kids since there is not both a mom (female) and dad (male) in the home.

I think one of the most objective pieces writen on Gay Marriage was written by the judge in the prop 8 when he wrote is verdict. (link)

And no, his being gay does not mean he was not objective.

If you have to be factual, it does not hurt to cite your sources.
