thats different than the cake though.
If the bakery would sell a non designed cake to a gay couple, or if they refused a straight couple to make a gay cake, that is different than your example.
To be clear, I'm not sticking up for the bakery, it just doesn't seem like a clear proxy like you are saying
- Retric 5y agoOnly the context was discussed not the details. In other words they could have been trying to order a cake saying “Happy Birthday“ to be used in a wedding for some in joke and the baker wouldn’t have known. And in context a strait couple can’t have a gay wedding, the difference is inherently gender dependent thus making it a proxy. [edited for clarity]
- whiddershins 5y agoA straight couple could purchase a cake for a gay wedding. And the baker wouldn’t have sold it to them. Therefore the baker is not discriminating against gay people. The baker won’t sell cakes for gay weddings to anyone, regardless of race, religion, or sexual orientation.
