Billboard proclaims "Nobody is born gay"

[Alex K]

You may have a point about who represents them as a public face (and atheists can relate, I don't want Richard Dawkins to be the public face of my atheism for instance),

but really - how can you seriously complain that *they* make their sexuality everyones business too much when in recent memory society as a whole was obsessed with it to the point of torturing and shunning them for their sexuality? That's very cynical.

My issue is that they literally bring up sex in their activism. Nobody can stop them from performing sexual acts (although I suppose some people do actually try) but they want the same rights as straight married couples. When a sign you are holding up says stuff like "Lick Bush in 2001" it takes away from the message and points the mind towards a sexual act and not the actual issue at hand.

Ok so there's this tendency to use sexual imagery to provoke and you find it distracting and not useful. Hmkay. Shrug. I've read opinions by gay people who thought the same. Tastes differ. What does it at all have to do with which rights they deserve? Your post is still terrible as it stands.
