Yeah, there's some real shadow sexuality stuff going on for those who  
are most fiercely anti-gay.

The majorities though, they just seem to be anti-progressive, in that  
people who are progressive about gay marriage, may also be progressive  
on a whole bunch of other issues. So it is not unfair to say that  
their core worries are justified--they want things to stay the same...  
they want everything to stay the same.
