"Sure gay people have stolen the right to marry."

Dood! Nooooooooooooo!

You did not steal it, it was democratically given to you. Stuff the 40% who voted no. I myself did not vote at all. I would not condemn anybody to marriage ;)

Seriously though, stop worrying about that 40% and remember that is the way a vote works. It is great that you were not like a lot of the Yes voters, who acted downright horribly, but seem to have taken the mature, higher ground approach of letting the sticks fall where they might. As it turns out, they fell into a bridge for you and your fellow poofters ;) (Just jks mate. Thickening up your skin.)

Seriously. DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THE HATERS! Haters gonna hate as the meme goes.

You got the marriage right, be happy about it. Do not worry yourself about others opinions of gay people or of you. You have only one person that matters how they feel and that is you. So feel confident, feel proud and be who you are without pretence or fear. And if you want to have a chat, drop me a line anytime. Just leave a message on whatever my latest post is and I will get back to you as soon as I can.

Cheers, stay safe, stay happy and stay confident. Stay Gay.
