Constitutional courts around the world are increasingly recognizing the rights of gay, lesbian, and same-sex couples. They are making decisions on issues like decriminalizing sexual acts and allowing same-sex marriage and parental rights. These courts are using arguments about human dignity, privacy, liberty, equality, and non-discrimination. By sharing ideas with each other, courts are helping to change public opinion and politics on gay rights. They are also influencing how people think about marriage and family. Overall, courts are playing a crucial role in advancing equality for people of all sexual orientations.
