Is hertrosexual marriage called "straight marriage"? No it bloody well isn't. So why isn't homosexual marriage just accepted as "marriage", because that's what it is, 2 humans who love each other, making a bond together in the form of marriage. Thats what i think anyway. People just called it gay marriage to make it separate from "their" form of marriage (for whatever reason religion or just culture made it a thing of difference) when it really isn't.
The idea of a society implements social constraints and beliefs of the majority. That is a simple undeniable fact of life.
Should it be called gay marriage? no. But it's extremely easy to see why it is. It's called gay marriage because people need to differentiate it from classical heterosexual marriage, and, because it is homosexual marriage, it is called gay marriage for ease of use.
Someone being denied right to happiness because someone else thinks it infringes on their rights
this is where debate comes into it's own. If you can logically debate and *win* the majority over, you will be crowned victorious and your right will be undeniable in society.
Its a fear... so homophobia = a fear of another humans sexuality? I mean sorry but thats crap, how can you have a fear of that... Its a lie, it really is, you wanna know what I call these people instead? Horrible twats (I normally use a much stronger word that twats but I'm trying to follow de rules 
)
No offense intended, but I think this is the wrong way to look at the issue.
If someone is brought up their entire life to believe in a system that works, believe in something as being right. They are taught it is right by those who they respect and love. How can they be expected to question it so immediately and thoroughly?
The issue isn't that they are "twats" the issue is that the people have been brought up so their brain functions in a different logical manner, or their beliefs simply do not reflect those of others.
One must work towards the goal of education of these people so they can have a proper full understanding of what is actually going on around them.
If you don't attack the opposition you'll be fighting/defending forever... Or worse, you'll lose to a selfish belief.
This is known as an "ad hominem" attack (aka, informal/logical fallacy). It doesn't work in any argument now, it didn't work 100 years ago. I highly recommend against it. Stick to the issue at hand, convince them, convince those who have influence, convince those with power, convince everyone you can.
If you walk up to someone on the street, who is an easily influenced person, and you notice they are holding a "god hates fag" sign. If you tell them to "piss off" what will you have accomplished? nothing.
Debate the issue, convince others, make a difference.
You think I'm gonna sit around simply debating this crap? No, you think blacks would have rights these days if they sat around and debated all the time? No. Fighting for rights isn't about violence, however it IS about never giving up the "good fight"...
I will ask you, how was it that African Americans gained their rights? was it through violence and hate against those who disagreed? No.
the "good fight" as you describe it was debate, logical argument, and emotional sympathy. Not attack.
How about women? Would they have got rights if you sat around talking about it without action? I doubt it... You know why they did? Because they fought the opposition for their rights, and they got the rights that they deserved! Which is how it should be. So if you are seriously saying that gays shouldn't fight the opposition, then I'll kindly tell you to think again...
Fight? I mean, they didn't literally fight. They argued, they "fought" through peaceful means-they protested. They *convinced* others of their rights. They made them understand they had the same rights as they did. Fighting the opposition does not consist of attacking them. It consists of converting, debating, and convincing them.
Debate is HOW you win these fights.
defend your position, defend it well.
As for the particular issue at hand....
Of course gays deserve the right to marriage. In any situation where they are controlled by a non-religiously influenced government, they deserve the same exact rights as any other person around them.
However, this is my opinion, my belief. I will debate it, I will influence others, and I will support it. But I don't expect people to automatically accept it. I would like it if they would, but I do not have that luxury. As thus, I *must* fight for it-through debate, argument, and support.
