Unless we’re talking about a brothel or a porn film company, I fail to see what an employee’s sexual orientation has to do with his/her job. Why should employment discrimination be allowed on the basis of sexual orientation any more than it’s allowed for race, religion, or ethnicity?

But Republicans have a proud tradition of defending the rights of bigots, and they need to keep that up, I suppose.
