I don't find it a great leap of imagination to see a connection.

As someone has remarked earlier, isn't this stereotyping gay people?
If a policeman wears an earring he must be gay? Is that right?
So which is it?
Gay (or any other people) shouldn't be stereotyped?
Gay (or any other people) shouldn't be discriminated against?
I would say both. But, as there are many people, there are many opinions. Not being gay myself, I'd say some gay people may view the topic at hand as discrimination, others may view it as stereotyping.
As another person remarked earlier. If you advocate gay rights (which I'm all for) pick your battles right. I don't think this is a good pick. But that's my opinion.
