Definition: We would like you to classify each of the following sets of argument pairs (discussing Gay Marriage) into either SIMILAR or NOT SIMILAR. A pair of arguments is considered SIMILAR if the arguments are about the same FACET (making the same argument), and is considered NOT SIMILAR if they do not have the same FACET. A FACET is a low level issue that often reoccurs in many arguments in support of the author's stance or in attacking the other author's position. Positive Example 1 - Input: Sent1: Many social conservatives argue that benefits are provided to married couples because, in turn, married couples benefit society. Sent2: We give married couples marriage benefits TO STRENGTHEN the marriage, because marriage STRENGTHENS society. Output: Similar Positive Example 2 - Input: Sent1: A civil partnership between two homosexual men or two lesbian women should be called a homosexual civil partnership. Sent2: Marriage is by definition between a man and a woman, and no one else, and the states interest is in a procreative type relationship, a gay couple does not entitle to these benefits. Output: Not similar Negative Example 1 - Input: Sent1: So I must ask you why exactly are you against same sex marriage when it has been shown that the ban on same sex marriage is just like the ban on interracial couples getting married? Sent2: I can only assume because you don't want to admit that perversion of marriage will rise out of same gender marriage. Output: Similar Now complete the following example - Input: Sent1: gays will have or not have gay marriage based on the law. Sent2: Without legal gay marriage, gay partners don't have to worry about common law statutes being used against them by their partner. Output:

A pair of arguments is considered SIMILAR if the arguments are about the same FACET (making the same argument), and is considered NOT SIMILAR if they do not have the same FACET. A FACET is a low level issue that often reoccurs in many arguments in support of the author's stance or in attacking the other author's position. Positive Example 1 - Input: Sent1: Many social conservatives argue that benefits are provided to married couples because, in turn, married couples benefit society. Sent2: We give married couples marriage benefits TO STRENGTHEN the marriage, because marriage STRENGTHENS society. Output: Similar Positive Example 2 - Input: Sent1: A civil partnership between two homosexual men or two lesbian women should be called a homosexual civil partnership. Sent2: Marriage is by definition between a man and a woman, and no one else, and the states interest is in a procreative type relationship, a gay couple does not entitle to these benefits. Output: Not similar Negative Example 1 - Input: Sent1: So I must ask you why exactly are you against same sex marriage when it has been shown that the ban on same sex marriage is just like the ban on interracial couples getting married? Sent2: I can only assume because you don't want to admit that perversion of marriage will rise out of same gender marriage. Output: Similar Now complete the following example - Input: Sent1: Man-woman marriage is legal and gets state goodies, but man-man and woman-woman marriages are illegal. Sent2: Marriage is by definition between a man and a woman, and no one else, and the states interest is in a procreative type relationship, a gay couple does not entitle to these benefits. Output:

Output: Similar Now complete the following example - Input: Sent1: Everyone has the right to marry someone of the opposite sex, and with gay marriage, everyone will have the right to marry someone of the same AND opposite sex. Sent2: Now, although it is technically true that everyone is granted the right to opposite-sex marriage and no one is granted the right to same-sex marriage, this means nothing more than "heterosexuals will use marriage, while homosexuals will not."

Output: Similar Now complete the following example - Input: Sent1: If you would like us to have the rights then marriage is the only way to give us the same rights. Sent2: In the case of same-sex marriage, I can think of no reason why we should not extend the same rights that opposite-sex couples have to same-sex couples (and plenty of reasons why we should).

Output: Similar Now complete the following example - Input: Sent1: I don't care if calling it "marriage" offends people, or violates what they call the sanctity of marriage, gays should have the same RIGHTS that a married couple gets. Sent2: It could be called gay marriage or civil unions as long as they have the same equal rights as a married heterosexual couple. Output:

Output: Similar Now complete the following example - Input: Sent1: In other words, since same-sex couples do not "naturally" have children, they do not need the protections of marriage as opposed to opposite sex couples. Sent2: I guess because many (not all) same-sex couples plan when they have children, they do not need the encouragement of marriage that opposite sex couples do. Output:
