A Push is on for Same-Sex Marriages

I think that the start of allowing same-sex marriages is a start to changing America. With allowing more freedom to the world, now everyone can feel comfortable in their own skin. Someone should be allowed to do whatever it pleases even if that means they have fallen for the same sex. This is a free nation, and no law should forbid that. Times have changed, this isn't the 1800's when everyone was afraid to express their true feelings because they might be hurt. 
This is also such an improvement because Iowa is located in the South West, which is considered not to be as open to gay rights. It just shows the world is changing and soon enough maybe discrimination will be on its way to an end.
