Gays are people who live their lives and have accomplishments outside of sex.

Ironic statement since the word "gay" points to directly sexual preference. Everybody has accomplishments. No one group needs special accolades in particular because of the way they prefer to have sex. Hypocrisy is a helluva drug.

People who are minorities have found it harder to accomplish goals that the majority has a easier time accomplishing. So we celebrate that struggle and overcoming those barriers and fight the prejudice that could continue to create those barriers by having a month observance of those who over came that prejudice.

Then why do they insist on making such a big deal about their sexual preferences?

Because they have been subjected to prejudice for generations because straight people made a big deal about their sexual preference and they are standing up now. Safety comes through large numbers standing up and coming out of the closet.
