You're arguing in very bad faith here. That's a huge misrepresentation of what pro-choice advocates want.

> You're demanding a special privilege for your partner and then talking as though it were a natural right.

It's not a special privilege. It's a privilege people who are straight get but not people who are gay, which is not okay.

It's the same kind of misrepresentation as saying Eich spent $1000 to hurt people like the poster. That's my point. No-one in these debates is actually setting out to hurt other people, yet from the other side that's how it's experienced.

How is it a misrepresentation to say that donating to the cause of opposing gay rights harms gay people? There’s a direct cause and effect, linked by exactly that issue - the Prop 8 supporters weren’t even trying to hide it, either. They very explicitly wanted to take a right away from other people, even though they suffered no plausible harm from those people exercising that right.
