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: If anything, as things stand now, it is the same sex couples paying more of their taxes to support the heterosexual couples; income taxes, social security taxes, inheirantence taxes, property taxes, as examples.
Sent2: Without same-sex marriage, opposite-sex couples are paying less than their share because of same-sex couples who pay more taxes without seeing any benefits.

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: All they have to do is either write in that civil unions will give the same legal rights as marriage, or else list the same rights that marriage does.
Sent2: What they want legalized is something that the government calls marriage and conveys with it the same rights and responsibilities that are conveyed upon what the government calls marriage between people of opposite sexes.

Input: Sent1: 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.
Sent2: The point of the matter was that a reasonable person could believe that gay marriage would not benefit children and thus since benefiting children is a state interest the law is ok.

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: if we say that same-sex couples should have the right to marry each other, then any two consenting adults should have the legal right to marry each other.
Sent2: As I've said many times already, there are more similarities when it comes to gay marriage, to all other legal marriages.
