    This article is good because it shows both sides of Men and Women and not just women. Most articles just say how women are being treated worse then men, which in most cases is true, but we don't tend to see the full picture. we choose not to see the fact that in some spaces, Women mistreat Men. so i like how this article showed both sides.

    I like this article and topic because it's been a very hot topic for the longest time and now that gay marriage is legal it is an even more big deal and I would love to know how everyone feels towards this topic. This article is talking about how many people say they don't agree with it because it's going against what the bible says? But the bible also says that Jesus loves everyone no matter what.
