I wish it were solely due to altruism, but no, most people want a heterosexual child mainly because they want a "normal" child, as you said. Worrying about the stigma and discrimination is secondary.
I don't take it personally at all. Even I would prefer a heterosexual child if I were to have one. I'm with you, though: If I had a son who turned out gay, I would accept him completely. We don't always get exactly what we want in life; we just have to make the best of what we've got.
