Abstract
While the time has been ticking, social paradigm and movements towards an individual life, romantic emotions have been playing their crucial roles in support of our happiness and for the sake of living people’s lives in the very-long term. No matter what (your) status is - whether single or married-, our rights and liberties are protected by the Constitution (regardless of different jurisdictions). Meanwhile, they shall not be constitutionally discriminatory as long as such discrimination must not significantly impact social activities. This paper aims to define and underline how important both ‘marital status’ and ‘family establishment’ would be among the diverse sexuality through the lens of recognizable social perceptions as well as modern media. Hence, the aforementioned analysis is to point out that the Thai existing Civil and Commercial Code (CCC) is not in line with the modern social perceptions. This paper also concludes that the CCC’s objectives are obsolete and not responsive to the growing recognition of diverse sexuality, particularly in the Thai society. The CCC was initially drafted to affirm the formation of heterosexual and monogamous family institution. This article argues that reproductivity cannot be a requirement of lawful marriage and a norm for a family institution.
