After concluding this survey, I realized that opinions on gay marriage really depend on three main factors: religious belief, general knowledge of homosexuality, and age. Participants with strong religious affiliation almost always strongly disagreed with the statement that homosexuals should be permitted to marry. Those who were educated at an early age about homosexuality were indifferent towards them getting married, and those below the age of 18 all agreed it was only fair for everyone to be allowed to marry.
I believe this strongly demonstrates how education, religion, and age strongly effect outlooks on life. I was not too surprised about the outcome of these surveys because I knew these factors would have this effect on the outcome. During my presentation in class, I will be speaking about these questions more in detail and the outcome of all age groups and other factors, also how they differed.
