Self hating gays are extremely common. If you think trying to appeal to our oppressors will make you more well-liked, you are wrong.

They don't have to think I'm OK, they just have to keep it to themselves and not humiliate me or make a scene in social settings. That's not asking too much.

How am I supposed to know which ones hate gays and which don't? Do they wear signs?

Why is it not their burden for being hostile to whole groups of people in the first place?

>Explain why there are no federal protections against discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and indeed attempts to pass such laws have failed repeatedly if gays are wholly accepted.
Crimes, violence, and discrimination are already illegal, and crimes against stupid annoying faggots can also be elevated into being labeled as "hate crimes" with harsher punishment.
>Why are there multiple adoption agencies, some receiving public money, who refuse to serve gay people wanting to adopt?
This is due to child welfare concerns. Most gaywads are mentally unfit, and aren't capable of taking children regardless of their sexual orientation. Also they have a duty to protect children from sexual predators, and those who pose a higher risk of being a sexual predator (gay people fall here, because of the high amount of sexual molestation that happens in gay people).
>You simply have never had to navigate the world as a gay person and have no idea what it is like.
Have you tried to navigate the world as just a person? People mist likely won't bother you if you don't overtly try to bother them.
>People in the public eye endorsing backwards religious beliefs only makes our lives harder.

Because they're truly not necessary and the states that matter have them anyway

Child-rearing is not a right, but that point aside you can find a different agency or a surrogate or something.

Nice twisting of facts faggot. Homosexuals are a small portion of the population and tend to be more dysfunctional than heterosexuals. Lesbian couples have the highest rates of domestic abuse and gay
men rarely stick to the same partner for longer than a few months. Not exactly the ideal living situations for children.

I'm not with the guy everyone is arguing against, but the sad state of affairs for male rape victims has nothing to do with this conversation.

If you have no experience of something, and can't cite a study or news article to show that what you claim still happens does in fact still happen, then yes: that specific form of discrimination is hypothetical/fictitious.
I'm not saying gays in 2019 face 0 discrimination in any aspect of their life, because of course there are countless stories of homeless gay youths or bullied/ostracized gay people, etc. But if you're talking on a systemic, societal level then your run-of-the-mill homosexual is doing just fine.

Nearly every single one of those people were educators at a private Catholic schools, whose teachings stand in direct opposition to homosexuality. I'm positive their contracts had clauses concerning living within the scope of christian morality.
