The gay in your face is not helping, the parades etc just shut up and live your life. I dont or ever did have the desire to march down the street claiming I ##### my wife. so shutup and live your life.

How arrogant are you?
Unfortunately, either intentionally or for some other reason, you didn't understand.

Heterosexuals do this every day. Wedding rings, children, pictures of their family on their desk, locker room talk, etc. etc.

You guys are awfully obsessed with pride parades. I've never even been to one.

Hmmm.... Liberal California voted to ban gay marriage. Since democrats outnumber republicans, explain how prop 8 passed. Heres a hint: ask the Black and Hispanic communities.

The big cities of California are liberal, but the State has a large conservative population. And yes, it was largely due to uneducated blacks and hispanics and the financial backing of the Mormon church. And yet it still barely passed a majority.

Honestly, it's just largely due to us having one of the most Conservative and uneducated populations in the Western world. We have the largest Fundamentalist/Evangelical population on the planet, and their ridiculous interpretation and application of a 4000 year old text is the overwhelming majority of where gay hatred stems from....

Homophobes are cherished by the GOP because they are their ticket in. People like Rick Perry and Michelle Bachmann would have never been in the running without them. People who aren't homophobes are too busy worrying about their jobs to make gay rights a priority.
