Reply #6: I Didn't Say It Wasn't True. I Just Said It Looked Like Pandering.

I realize that it's necessary, but I personally abhor the "gay people are just like you!" method of selling equality, which is disingenuous, because A) gay people are NOT "just like you!" and B) it leaves those gay people who are not interested in the suburban house with the white picket fence and the two point five children hung out to dry. Equality should not depend on the perception that one is a christian or a settled married couple or anything else popularly conceived as "normal". The leather daddy and the drag queen deserve their rights just as much as Johnny Sixpack and Harry Househusband.
