If a particular behavior or activity is barred by one group but not another then you have a constitutional issue.

Well first one must establish that such a group exists -YOU or anyone, be it scientific genius or unschooled layman, for that matter have yet to do this... -no group, no standing, no argument, no nada...

Care to cite anything corroborating the factual validity of the linch pin premising the homosexual rights arguments you attempt to advance? ANYTHING?

Whatever your culpability, either you are posting leftist propaganda or you are not. Any legitimate citation will suffice...
