Billboard proclaims "Nobody is born gay"

I kinda feel like that's one of the problems with the gay community though. They make it a point to try to make their sex life EVERYONE'S business. I don't have a problem with somebody being gay, I just think that their activism is executed poorly. One of the reasons that the civil rights campaign finally had success was because MLK was such a great speaker and figure for the cause. When one of the most visible activists for gay rights is Rosie O'Donnell, the cause is bound to have a certain degree of failure. Just my opinion.

They try to make it everyone's business? Seriously? Maybe if conservative lawmakers and religious whack-a-loons weren't constantly telling gay people that they aren't as human as the rest of us and don't deserve the same rights, they wouldn't HAVE to speak up. If you have an issue with gay people being vocal, gays are the wrong people to take it up with.

I'm not a USian, but - as I understand it - gay rights are proceeding at a breakneck pace, as regards gay marriage, workplace discrimination, and the adoption of children. Could you kindly point out what you see as 'a certain degree of failure' in the gay rights cause, and how you can lay these at Rosie O'Donnell's door?

Yup, just your opinion. Have fun with it.
