They believed that women were not psychologically equipped to assume the role traditionally held by men--but that didn't make them anti-women? Wait...what? Is it just me or is that pretty much the definition of being anti-women?
Wanting gay people to be treated anything other than equal is anti-gay in my book, just like wanting people of color to be treated anything but equal to whites was and is racist.
I've said it before and been called a homophobe for it but, speaking from a strictly legal standpoint, regarding marriage, no one has any more legal rights than anyone else. I can't marry someone of the same sex and neither can anyone else. What is being pushed for is a new legal right that will apply to everyone--the right to marry someone of the same sex.
Note that I did not take a stance on it.
A straight person can marry the person they are in love with. A gay person cannot do that in most places in the world. That is unequal.

Sorry, nim. Marrying the person you love is not a legal right for anyone.
I don't really care if same-sex couples want to get legally married or not. Be warned, though. Marriage is often a bed of thorns, not roses. Being legally bound in marriage to another person is a rocky road, as often as not, and fraught with problems than can make you question your sanity for ever having legalized the relationship. One hell of a lot of divorce lawyers are going to get a lot of new business.
LOL here we go again, so who are these people who have discovered these animals are homosexual? How did they come to this theory? Are animals immune to mental disorder?

Actually it is based on legal precedent, and this has been pointed out to you before.

And ironically, places which allow gay marriage have lowered their divorce rates.
