A quote: "Many of us struggle with our own sexuality and sense of gender because of the influences in our household environments growing up."
So many people without gay parents struggle with these issues, too. Parenting/upbringing of all sorts gets blamed for everything. I remember this poem from Developmental Psych class:
This Be The Verse by Philip Larkin : The Poetry Foundation
Yeah, they do!

If there are genes that predispose someone to being homosexual, bisexual, pansexual, etc., then that would probably be the more likely explanation for why some of these kids are struggling with their sexuality. Most gay people grew up in homes without a same-sex couple, which makes this person's argument even more illogical.

The long run goal is getting the Christian churches to hand over everything related to marriage; everything. When the government gets full control over marriage, a bureaucrat gets to decide who,what,when,where,why,how, etc, because, what are to two main things associated with marriage? Money and land! Elite bureaucrats, billionaire tech company owners, oil tycoons etc, will marry themselves and their cronies into massive wealth, like never seen before. They will all prevent competition by bring back the old feudal system. The poor/middle class will not be able to marry into wealth only out of it. Gay marriage is purely emotion based to get people stirred up so that it is an easy victory in the courts to further and painlessly gain more control. Take money and land out of the equation and then the government would not care about marriage at all.
Marriage is not an invention of Christianity. Marriage exists in many different religions and was around before Christianity was even a thought.
