Not enough social morals for free to bear True Witness to their own State supreme law of the land?
Equality under the law shall not be denied or abridged because of sex, race, color, creed, or national origin. This amendment is self-operative.
Funny how they weren't denied ANY rights based on ANY of those things! Funny how that works and even if it said sexual preference well homosexuality is a mental illness not a sexual preference.
Yes; they are being denied and disparaged based on sex.
Did you know, our federal Constitution was Intelligently Designed to be both gender and race neutral, from Inception?
Homosexuality isn't mentioned in the constitution. However, I believe founders generally detested homos. Some homos use the 'all men are created equal' clause to pretend there was acceptance of them, but I don't think the founders considered them as real men, (any more than they considered black men as real men) but they generally regarded homos as deviants. For the most part, up until clinton, homos were not allowed in the military and creating a homosexual act was a ticket out via general discharge. I'm sure you can search around, you may find an exception or two, but that doesn't mean there was equality.
