You have a point. I suppose one could be a proponent of "traditional marriage"* and not be a bigot. However, if you ARE bigoted against gays, then "pro traditional marriage" is probably a very attractive position to take.
*Not traditional in the sense that a marriage is a contract between two fathers as it has been since antiquity. Rather a very narrow 19th and 20th century version of traditional marriage in which a man and a woman freely chose one another to be life partners.

Funny enough, they'll attack LGBT people for being upset they can't marry their partner because in Iran you get killed for being gay, and then turn around and bitch about gay people getting married and starbucks holiday cups when being Christian gets you killed in Iran.
It took me a sec to get the second point. Yes, this is hypocrisy.
