In a world where our focus should be on family safety, quality education, secure jobs, and basic human needs like food and shelter, it’s perplexing that many people spend their energy judging who others love or how they identify.

Cate Blanchett, in her portrayal of Carol, an older woman exploring a same-sex relationship in the 2016 film Carol, aptly summarized the issue: "The interesting thing for me about the debate about same-sex marriage, quite aside from the film of Carol, is that it's one ...
