Well if you live in the US you are in luck, because in most places in the US employers are allowed to discriminate against homosexuals. There are no federal protections for employment discrimination against homosexuals. There are city and state laws protecting them in some parts of the country, but it most of the country, no protection at all.
In fact, in 19 states it is both legal for same sex couples to marry, and also legal to fire someone for being a homosexual. So if a business owner doesn't want to offer spousal benefits to same sex couples, no problem! You can just fire them because they got married.
I personally think all of that is horrible. But as you think it is right and just as a said, if you live in the US you are very muc in luck. God bless the USA.
Lets also not forget that even though there are city and state laws protecting homosexuals in some cases, employees can still discriminate against them by citing some other bullshit reason to cover up their homophobia.
should employers be allowed to discriminate?
