Defense Of Marriage




Defense of Marriage is a phrase use by Social Conservatives , who wish to guarantee that Marriage is defined as "a legal union of one man and one woman as husband and wife." They consider Homosexual and Polygamous marriages to be a cultural attack against Morality . This phrase is often used by politicians in legislation which is meant to enforce this view; the 1996 Defense Of Marriage Act .

Critics contend Defense of Marriage is merely a euphemism for matrimonial Discrimination . They complain that the above definition of marriage is an affront to the Civil Rights of homosexuals.
