Agree or Disagree

Feeling responsible for someone can be a burden.
Agree. It means that you have to think of the other person over and above yourself. For example if I'm responsible for looking after my cat i will have to make sure to feed him enough, clean his litter, and let him in and out the house. That would mean that i would not be able to go away for the weekend without making sure that he's looked after. We also have responsibilities to look after our family. Parents need to look after their children when they're young and children need to look after their parents when they're old. This can be difficult at times because it may not always be pleasant. Not only that, it means that you can not be free to do as you please.

It is more acceptable for women to love their female friends than it is for men to love their male friends.
Agree. Men are careful not to be labeled gay. They may be just as attached to their male friends ad women are to their female friends but will not express it the same way. They will be more inclined to pat their male friend violently on the back or give high fives than kiss and hug. The fear of being labeled gay holds them back.

There are times when euthanasia (mercy killing) can be justified.
Disagree. It's not up to us to decide when to die, but up to god. Killing is wrong under all circumstances. Even if you're in pain of have a terrible disease and want to die you never know what could happen. Maybe tomorrow if you stick it out they can find a cure for your pain and you could get better. If you had died you wouldn't have been able to enjoy many more years of life. Or maybe something wonderful will happen to you despite the pain and suffering.
