homosexuals

In a culture where the norm is oppression of homosexuals, such a statement can be considered abusive to interracial couples and thus shouldn't be protected.

Just like someone who is pro-polygamy today is seen as being an attack on homosexuals for daring to compare loving homosexuals to the abusive relationships of non-consensual polygamy.

This is like the idiotic christian bigots that think homosexuals are bad because they're child molesters.

It was also a deep internal shame and self-hate that many homosexuals felt about themselves.

Or imagine what would happen even today in places where homosexuals are put to death?

Further (again my interpretation), it seems that the issue is that the previous interpretation of the constitution did not allow for homosexuals to marry – otherwise it would have been allowed before.

Let's not forget that until very recently, "the rest of society" didn't agree that homosexuals should be allowed to marry.

Also used by Saudi to kill "deviant" homosexuals, witch-crafters and adulterers.

Reminds me of when homosexuals developed aids in the 80s; "Serves them right." I think people need to really stop it with the revenge fantasies for behaviors they dislike.

Contemplating the outcome of 60M+ single men (discounting homosexuals which estimates put at around 5-20% of the population) unable to find a woman simply because of the numbers game seems coupled with the "Little Emperor" phenomenon that was discussed here on HN recently is pretty concerning.

Homosexuals can find an accepting congregation and get married there.

Homosexuals cannot reproduce naturally and only through scientific advances can they choose to have a surrogate mother or a sperm donor to have a child: which is from a heterosexual process.
