I was against gay marriage until I realized I didn't have to

Summary

This quote reflects a shift in perspective towards same-sex marriage. Initially, the speaker's stance was against it, suggesting a lack of acceptance or understanding. However, their mindset changes when they realize that being supportive of gay marriage does not affect them personally, as they themselves don't have to enter into this type of union. It showcases a growth in empathy and an acknowledgement that everyone should have the right to define their own relationships, even if it differs from one's own preferences.
