Thank you for updating your post. I'm still not in 100% agreement with you about this--but that's the point, isn't it? :)
And I'm sorry for arguing as stridently as I did, but this is something I feel strongly about. For years and years I've had to put up with people, even other liberals with the best of intentions, telling me and people like me that we have to accept homophobia as just another legitimate side of the issue. It makes me bristle, and I consider it a moral obligation to speak up.
