If two guys fall in love, that's their business. If you put it on display, for the world to see (and then shove it down peoples throats) then it becomes fair game. Guys desiring guys is repulsive to many (and their physical act of love is more than repulsive). It doesn't matter how much more advanced you are than the rest of us. Eventually you have to draw a line somewhere.
You can't put rubbish, like this, on display and then expect people not to speak their minds about it. What makes homosexuality so noble and admirable, that is is above criticism and above joking? What makes you think that you have the right to make those distinctions for everyone else?
No one is shoving anything down your throat. As a wise man said once, vote with your feet. You don't like the movie, don't go to see it.
You seem quite upset. I'm not judging you, just your comment, which I found to be off color. It sounds to my ear that you are the one who is making distinctions and castigating those who disagree with you.
As I've said many times on this board, we are all entitled to our beliefs. That means I'm as entitled to mine as you are to yours. That also means, to me at any rate, that I wouldn't mock, ridicule or otherwise make you wrong for thinking or feeling as you do.

Years ago my mother used to say to me... "In this world, Elwood, you can be oh so smart or oh so pleasant."
Well, for years I was smart.
I recommend pleasant.
You may quote me.
