Yes, I think the stance against gay marriage stems from a tradition of bigotry. I don't mean that as a personal attack on those who oppose it, but I think they're misguided. However, there's no denying that the defense of "traditional marriage" is an exclusionary political stance targeting a small subset of the population.
I would like to vote on the option of MAYBE.
Actions speak louder than words. Favoring is one thing, actions are another.
So because a person has a difference of opinion with you on marriage that automatically makes them a bbigot or a homophobe? Under your definition that would make about 75% of the people in the USA bigots or homophobes.....and you call us the intolerant ones...........what a joke.
It seems like a lot of people on the left seem to think so....I am asking you what do you think?

Assuming "traditional marriage" is code for "no queers settling down," then yes. If "traditional marriage" means something else, then it would depend on what it means.
How about stating your opinion on the issue?

I guess billions of people have been misguided for thousands of years. :shrug:

If a billion people for 2000 years thought 2 + 2 = 5, would they be right?
