    You say that “this guy has to realize that he’s a minority and has to accept his position.” Just what is that supposed to mean? That gay people should “know their place” and not speak up when someone makes a rude and bigoted remark? Unacceptable. Being in a minority doesn’t mean that you have to tolerate disrespect. Your profile indicates that you’re from Israel. I wonder how you’d feel if you heard someone say “all of us were normal, and one was a Jew?”

    Homsexuality is a minority characteristic, but that doesn’t make it any less “normal” than, say, left-handedness. You say that it’s “foolish and delusional for him to think that he can make the mainstream…think that he’s the same as we are.” That’s not the point. You don’t have to believe that people are the same as you to believe that they deserve to be treated with consideration and dignity.
