The problem is that when the backlash plays out, we only stop the advance - the ground gained by the enemy largely remains in their hands. Or if the homo-fascists retreat, they only retreat into a position which is still miles ahead of where they were 10 years ago. This ratchet effect isn't winning, it's static defense at best.

Winning would be democratically abolishing same-sex "marriage" in places where it is established as well as its close cousins: civil unions and domestic partnerships. Winning would be overturning Lawrence and allowing states to once again criminalize homosexual behavior according to prevailing cultural norms.
