I am a lesbian. I have a biological child who is very much loved and thriving in the care of both of her mommies. Who I am is much more complex than can be defined than by my choice of sexual partner alone, as you are more than the fact that you have sex with a man. I am not promiscuous, immoral, or trying to take anything away from you. I'm not contagious, the earth will not be wiped out by my getting Married. Separate is not equal, it's discrimination.
I wonder why you feel so threatened?
The big difference I see between us (other than our sexual orientation) is that I try my best to be supportive and understanding of differences in others, a trait I am happy to say I am successfully passing on to my child. She's only 3, but already she gets it.
I'm sorry that you are filled with so much anger and fear. That must be very difficult to live with.
I wish you Peace.
