Are you seriously comparing women's rights to gay rights?

Maybe it's just because I work in a male-dominated field and still make more than most of the men I work with, but I don't really see women "suffering injustice" the way I see it for gays...

Admittedly, I can't seem to get my panties in a bunch either way over the issue (I wouldn't care if they legalized gay marriage, but I'm not out crusading for it), but I really think it's unfair to categorize women's rights and gay rights together.
