Yes

The Social Democrats strongly support the legalization of same-sex marriage. They have consistently advocated for equal rights for the LGBTQ+ community, and their party leaders and members campaigned for a 'Yes' vote in the 2015 Irish marriage equality referendum, which led to the legalization of same-sex marriage in Ireland.

Agree

Yes, but allow churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies

The Social Democrats would likely agree with this answer to some extent, as they support marriage equality but also recognize the importance of religious freedom. While they have not explicitly stated this position, it is reasonable to assume that they would support allowing churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies if it aligns with their religious beliefs.
