For this issue there are different views between females and males. In fact there is a statistical significant difference (p is less than 0.05) between the two genders. The absolute majority of females agree that homosexuals should be given the right to marry (54%), whilst for the males there are 42% which are in favour. There are more males which are against than there are in favour. This result contrasts when it comes to the females.
