I'm just saying I think its unnecessary to congratulate someone for being gay. It's like congratulating someone for being black, white, mexican, jewish, etc.. oh your gay? Oh cool! high five and props for putting up with stereotypes! Every type of person has been targeted by hatred whether behind their back or to their face. If you wanted to congratulate and apologize a gay person for their stuggles you might as well high five and apologize to all the blacks, mexicans, whites, jews you see for all the hate they've experienced too.
