If someone does not feel comfortable doing whatever someone else wants them to do, they should not be forced to do it. There are other people fully willing and wanting to help them. Who in their right fucking mind wants to be catered to by someone who finds them offensive?

If I went to a bakery and asked them to bake a cake for my hypothetical heterosexual marriage tomorrow, and the bakery's owners happened to be a gay couple, and they said they would be "uncomfortable" baking a cake for a heterosexual marriage because, hypothetically, it does for some reason, I would have no problem going to another bakery.

If, in that same scenario, they simply refused to bake the cake without giving a reason, then I would be unhappy.

I think it's more in how someone expresses that they would rather not do something than the fact that they would prefer not to do it. So long as they can express that distaste/preference in a respectful manner, there is no reason to disrespect their opinion in turn.

Yeah unfortunately, people get persecuted for this kind of thing. Until that happens, we cannot have a free and open society that allows for people to disagree with one another.

Ideally if one could explain their reasoning and not be the target of hate flowing the other way, then it would be a win for all involved.
