On shooting yourself in the foot 

I see on your user page you whine about confronting supposed "homophobia and transphobia". Consider the possibility that what you're actually confronting is the consequences of your own jerkish behavior. It's nice that you decided to initiate a discussion thread about an important, substantive matter, but when you needlessly title it with an accusation about another user, you bring discredit only to yourself. If you had cared to look at the article's Talk archives as I'd suggested, you would have found that I am one of the editors who has made sureagainst some dedicated oppositionthat the article has contained more than a single, brief sentence on same-sex marriage. In other words, you might have figured out that that I was your potential ally in the current debate. But, you decided to pursue things in a fashion which I gather is customary for you. Very well then. Piss off, jerk. Whine about that.
