Someone else compared being gay to being racist, and now you're comparing being gay to sexual assault.
These are disingenuous comparisons at best, dangerously homophobic at worst.

How the hell was that comparing being gay to sexual assault? How come you didn't use the other example and accuse me of comparing being gay to 3d printing?
A sensible and reasonable analogy would be interracial marriage.
Should racist wedding business owners be able to refuse serving interracial marriages, on the basis of they don't believe in interracial marriage?
