I don’t think your gayness should be a reason to not celebrate a holiday with straight people.

Their gayness isn't the reason they're not celebrating with straight people, the straight people they would be forced to share a table with are.

(I'm not trying to have a go at you or think your comment had any malice behind it, but the difference there is crucial)

I meant that one's sexual shouldn't be the issue. And 99% of the time it isn't. It is ignorance and bigotry. Bigotry towards (usually) the homosexual person and the ignorance of the bigot how much they force their sexuality on others.
