That’s the equivalent of hating women because they will “take your [sons] from you,” or hating men because they will “take your [daughters] from you.”
A gay person isn’t making a choice between their orientation and their parents; there is no reason they can’t have both in their lives. I know plenty of young L/Gs who have totally normal relationships with their parents, no different from any straight kid. If they are being forced to choose, then the only ones forcing that choice are the parents.
The only ones making it an “us against them” situation are the bigots, not the gays. Gays don’t want to be separate from society, they want to be an accepted part of society.
