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: But to receive government recognition of their marriage or (better put) the government "promoted" aspects of their marriage,... they must conform their relationship to fit the government's definition. Sent2: Do not married couples whose marriages have been recognized by the state have the right to stay married and not have their civil marriages dissolved by the voters simply because of the animus of those voters against them?
