What is a interesting topic about gay marriage?

I'm doing a presentation for my American Government class on Gay marriage. There are other people in my group and we're all taking about something different about gay marriage.


These are the topics about gay marriage that are already taken by my group members:


Adoption


Civil rights


Religion


State laws


Prop 8


Choice


History





So they took all the good topics.lol. Whats something about gay marriage besides these that i maybe can talk about. ThanksWhat is a interesting topic about gay marriage?
Try the Full Faith and Credit Clause of the Constitution.





Section 1. Full faith and credit shall be given in each state to the public acts, records, and judicial proceedings of every other state. And the Congress may by general laws prescribe the manner in which such acts, records, and proceedings shall be proved, and the effect thereof.





Does that clause say that if a gay couple is legally married in one state that all states have to recognize the marriage?





There is your topic!


What is a interesting topic about gay marriage?
What kind of school would let their teachers use this as topic? It's extremely controversial - unless you have to argue both sides of the topic?





Maybe you could review the ';landscape'; of our society today, project how many gay marriages there will be in 40 years and what the world will look like and then 100 years from now - how much of a difference will gay marriage make to this country? How much impact will it really have if children are raised in that atmosphere? How much will what happens here impact the world given the ';global-ness'; we are experiencing now (and how fast will those changes happen given the internet and other technologies - changes in the thinking/actions of the population are much faster, more dramatic and have greater ';collateral damage'; than they did 50 or 100 years ago).






How children are affected and the school system because if gay marriage is legal then the schools have to teach on it.
the benefits of gay marriage vs that of a civil union.
