Sure they are forcing something on the rest of us. They are forcing others to recognize a marriage which they believe demeans the very term. It's actually more flagrant than, say, the right displaying the Ten Commandments on public land.

Ironic how the left seems to think that would be an infringement of rights (although there's literally no effect to those who don't believe) while they proclaim gay marriage as harmless...

Personally, I'd be fine with allowing civil unions in place of the term "marriage". Why? Because using a different term would allow for different rules as well as respect the traditions of the institution of marriage.

But what really pisses me off about gay activist groups is when they claim to what "equal" rights as the rest of us. Umm, they do have equal rights. Literally. Any man, regardless of sexual orientation, can marry a woman. What they want are SPECIAL rights.

What's sick to me, however, is that these groups sadly tend to identify themselves almost solely by their sexual preference. Maybe one day they'll realize that it's easier for the mainstream to accept that which isn't being shoved down their throats (no pun intended).
