I just hope that in a few decades, we'll be able to look back at the gay rights fight (and the upcoming trans rights fight that's likely going to be even more contentious) and react with disgust at some of the regressive opinions surrounding it. Shame-based social policy!

I agree. I know a man that said he used to argue feverishly with his father back in the 1960's about the civil rights movement. His father was a racist. Now, this same man that argued with his father is staunchly anti-gay. It's amazing how the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
