Maybe: perhaps not. Luther's very clear anti-Semitism was not an issue until, instead of joining up with him, they stuck with their own Faith. Prior to that, he was rather solicitous to the Jews.
I am not equating Judaism with homosexuality: rather, I am pointing out that Luther's tolerance of the Jews went as far as their agreement with him against the Church, and the possibility of their joining with him.
Martin Luther would never accept ‘gay marriage,’ it would probably take him a while to even grasp the concept.
I wonder if he would still think it was a good idea to have marriage dependent on whatever the civil authorities happen to think about it any one time, though.

No worries - I didn't take it that way.
Assuming your account of the events is accurate, I'm not sure that it has any bearing on this issue. The same dynamics are not in view in this situation.
Of course, opinions on what Martin Luther would do in this situation are pure speculation on our parts but I'm certain in my mind that Luther would stand on the clear Biblical teaching.
The idea that Luther merely held views due to strategical alliance building and thus might side with sodomites is typical RC absurdity. His vindictives against the Jews was due to their recalcitrant blasphemous attitude against Christ, leaving Luther exasperated (no excuse). Even Moses was provoked by them to speak rashly with his mouth, and Paul blamed them as a people for the death of Christ, and that thus wrath came upon them to the uttermost. (1Ths. 2:16) Yet he was willing to be damned for them. Unlike Luther at the end it quite surely seems.
Was Luther Anti-Semitic?
Or was it anti-Judaism. Were pope and Rome likewise?
