The first movie of the holiday, I watched it on the train to Harbin. Although the performances in the group are a bit exaggerated, in the movie, Lola said, "I don't want to get any special treatment, I just ask for equality", which impressed me deeply.
Some people who don't know it will wonder why they use demonstrations and affirmative action to fight for same-sex marriage by means of "big fanfare" in their opinion. Isn't it too much trouble? There are also people who are disgusted to talk about the issue of same-sex equality, they think that the same-sex affirmative action is too much. Some people even have a biased view that same-sex equality will only lead to chaos in society and make their children into what they call "abnormal people".
Before, I used to think that as long as two people love each other, marriage is just a relationship agreement. In fact, now that I think about it, I actually lack the awareness of protecting my own rights and interests.
The current situation of homosexuals is that in terms of many basic social security, just because they are same-sex couples, they cannot enjoy the basic rights that heterosexual couples have. When you encounter a change, you can't trust your partner, and you want to give your beloved partner more stable protection. But I found that just because you are a same-sex couple, your relationship is not recognized, even if you have been in love for a few years, or even a dozen, decades, even if you have experienced a lot of life between you. When the legitimate rights cannot be guaranteed, love cannot guarantee each other's legitimate rights and interests, and cannot give you any protection for the partner you care about and miss, you will become extremely hopeful to be treated equally.
In 2015, the United States became the 21st country in the world to agree to same-sex marriage. Same-sex equality is still on the way. Same-sex equality has never been to highlight one's own differences, but to fight for the rights that heterosexual couples have long had, and only to fight for equality.
Same-sex equality just for equality.
