> I'll draw an analogy to the civil rights [...]

Who are you in this analogy? The only thing I can come up with is not flattering.



Hey downvoters, it's an honest question. It makes him sound like "if I don't get mine, I'll keep you from getting yours", but I'd like to hear an alternate (more positive) interpretation.


If it's truly an honest question, the mapping for my analogy is { "white" : "straight married", "asian" : "gay", "black" : "single" }. Since I'm single, in the analogy I would be black.

(Admittedly, it's a confusing analogy if you are unfamiliar with US history.)
