It's just astonishing to me how little self-reflection goes on. Some people in there do nothing but bitch and moan about "the homosexual agenda," and then when the tables are turned, suddenly it's "wrong and disgusting".
Upton Sinclair said "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it." It's probably even more true when it's not one's salary, but the acceptance of one's family and peers. I imagine a lot of these people live in a world where everyone they know is on the same page about homosexuality being wrong. All the more reason for those of us who are pro-equal-rights to be out about that.
