Is it easier to be a gay couple in the US than before? The United States of America is a country composed of 50 states with independent laws. Some states agree with homosexual rights and others disagree. That’s the reason why the gay rights situation is in between discrimination and tolerance. Five states and one district have legalized same sex marriages: Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, Vermont, New Hampshire and District of Columbia: in March 2010, Washington D.C became the sixth place in the nation where same-sex marriages can take place. This is a huge step, the home city of the USA President Barack Obama just accepted gay marriage in the same place where a couple of years ago the last President was against that.
The question is: Is it easier to a gay couple in the US than before? We can answer this question by looking at the recent past and seeing the evolution of gay rights in the US. After that we can take a look at Gay rights today and at the end to the expectation of the of am for the future.

Religious institutions have struggled with policies, privileges and rites regarding homosexuality, including whether or not to bless same-sex unions and whether or not gays and lesbians may hold positions of authority. There is no consensus among Christian faith groups on what the Bible says about homosexuality. In 2005, The United Church of Christ became the first mainline Christian denomination to support same-sex marriage officially when its general synod passed a resolution affirming "equal marriage rights for couples regardless of gender." The resolution was adopted in the face of efforts to amend the Constitution to ban same-sex marriage. In July 2009, at the 76th General Convention of the Episcopal Church, delegates including bishops, clergy and lay members, voted to open "any ordained ministry" to gay men and lesbians, a move that could effectively undermine a moratorium on ordaining gay bishops that the church passed at its last convention in 2006.
