I think that the social theorist, Jean Rousseau, would have been the strongest supporter of equal rights. In the “The Social Contract," wrote that man was naturally good but becomes corrupted by the pernicious influence of human society and institutions. He preached a mankind improved by returning to nature and living a natural life at peace with his neighbors and himself. He claims to be in favor of democracy, but what he really favors is …

…standing next to him, regardless of class, race or religion. As of the issue of gay rights, I do think that the Rousseau would have supported gay rights. The way he would have seen the fight for gay rights, is the same as he would have seen the Fight for black rights, they both want what is theirs by law, their natural given rights. The rights that any civil society grants their civilians. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
