Conclusion 6. Bibliography 7. Attachments Interview 1. Introduction The dream of an America with boundless possibilities has shaped the American society over centuries.

As the historian James Truslow Adams defined the phrase “The American Dream“ in 1931, it is the “dream of a land, in that life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with the opportunity for each according to ability or achievement“ and in that everyone should “be recognized by others for what they are, regardless of the furtuitous circumstances of birth or position” 1. The idea of the American dream is rooted in the United States´ Declaration of Independence which declares that “all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness” 2. However there are issues like homosexuality and same-sex marriage that, with regard to the ban on same-sex marriage present in most of the United States, seem to be contrary to the notion of the American Dream. Thus one has to ask: Don´t gays/lesbians deserve the Pursuit of Happiness and the same rights as heterosexuals? Does marriage fit in as an inalienable right? Or quite simply, does denying same-sex marriage conflict with the American Dream? Digihome Pvr 160 Manual Transmission. In the following I am going to deal with those questions under close examination of the present situation in the United States, same-sex marriage beeing the new civil rights dispute and in that context the supporting and opposing arguments, as well as the California ballot Propositon 8 and the situation of children of gay parents.

Further I am going to include the results of an interview with a lesbian couple that lives in North California with its 7 year old daughter. Present Situation At present there are approximately 1.2 Million gay couples living in the United States, so the total number of gay couples amounts to about 594,391. Thereof, with a quantity of 92,138, California is the state with the most gay couples. Altogether gay people make up 1-4% of the population in all cities and especially concentrate in metropolian areas like Washington D.C. That registers the highest concentration of gay couples (1.29%). 3 Yet gay marriage is merely legal in 6 U.S.

States –Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, Vermont, New Hampshire, New York- and Washington D.C. New York solely recognizes out-of-state gay marriages and so does California, however only if the marriage is from before Proposition 8 was passed. New Jersey recognizes civil unions between same-sex couples and several states have domestic partnership laws that grant certain benefits to them.
