Oh yeah? Here's the OED: And MW: You think marriage is between a man and a woman. That, in and of itself, is okay. But when you make the claim that everyone else must conform to your definition, you are bigoted. That's it. That's what the word means.Bigoted is a huge word that's thrown around. It's just not true.
bigoted a. having or revealing an obstinate belief in the superiority of one's own opinions and a prejudiced intolerance of the opinions of others
bigot n. 1. a person who strongly and unfairly dislikes other people, ideas, etc. 2. a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance
It's interesting to see how homophobic groups have adopted the language and style of civil rights activism. Saying things like "It's scary to tell people about who I am," or "you're not alone" in an uber-personal black-and-white PSA-style video. I dunno, that's all I have to say about this video after OftenBen so eloquently articulated my initial reaction.

'What I do feel insecure about is... speaking from the heart, being open and honest about what I believe' Good, prejudiced, archaic bigot. You should feel uncomfortable, you should feel insecure.
