Where do I start?

Homosexuals can't get married and have it recognized nationally, they can't file taxes together, hey have a hard adopting and they are the target of many hate crimes.
I can't quite decide why the issues that homosexuals face in their lives sticks out so prominently to me when myself nor anyone that I am close to has gone through any of it. I fell like most many of the reasons people face social discrimination is not a result of a choice that they made. Maybe I am bothered in the instance of homosexuals rights because people are still having the debate of whether or not homosexuality is a choice.
I'm very interested in arguing about same-sex marriages or homosexual adoptions, so I am trying to determine why it is that I feel so strongly for them. It is one of the few things that I'll get upset about when I discuss it with people.
So I was looking for an article to write about to start somewhere in the homosexual rights area and I wondered if I'm already to biased to write about it because I am stubborn on my beliefs. I am debating if it would be more beneficial to me to learn where I stand on some other issue.
Therefore, before actually searching for articles I feel like I need to take a step back and determine what exactly I would like to accomplish during this semester when writing my papers. Should I become more educated on a topic I know something about? Or should I take this as an opportunity to learn something totally new about something I might not have even realized was a social injustice?
