...but the simple fact that two people in love have to worry about how people will react to them, that they have to 'monitor their behavior' in some way to avoid giving offense - there is something deeply and fundementally wrong about that.

I'm a black guy who's dated white women all his life. I always watch my back. Everywhere.

I can walk into a room and tell you how many black people are in it without looking, and if there are any interracial couples.

Sad to say, but it ain't just GLBTs, hon. The times ain't changed all that much or that fast, in many, many ways.
