It doesn't mean you have to respect their opinion itself, just that they are allowed to have it. Sadly, many people are not capable of this.

I just want my baby brother to grow up and and find someone to make him happy, get married, and adopt cute pudgy babies. I don't understand what difference it makes which gender his partner is.

In contrast, many more gay couples than straight couples stick together through thick and thin, and don't run for an affair or divorce papers at the drop of a hat. In terms of abortion, I think I fall where you do. I could never have one myself, and I'm aghast and disgusted with people who knowingly have unprotected sex or are just generally irresponsible with birth control, fall pregnant and then abort, because I do honestly feel that life DOES begin at conception. But with that said, I am pro-choice, and I feel that abortion should definitely be an option, so long as it's safe, all other options have been discussed, and counseling has been provided to the mother, and to the father if he is present. Anyways, I'll step off my soap box now! As a gay friend of mine pointed out, we — heterosexual couples — are doing a damn fine job of ruining the institution of marriage all on our own.
