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 really the only thing we have to know on the issue of same sex marriage is the Supreme Court believes marriage is a right and right now gay couples do not have that right.
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).

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: Lets look at the polygamy claim, since no one else can marry more than one person no one is being discriminated against.
