It implies that worrying about what other people think is a waste.

The author, "Suzanna Danuta Walters is a professor of sociology and director of the Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program at Northeastern University" seems to imply that tolerance and open acceptance of people in the LGBT community is "not enough?" But, in a society with freedom on consciousness, speech, and assembly, is the alternative? To me, this (emotional) argument is the seed from which 'progressive' intolerance grows . . . and they censor or even physically attack people that they disagree with. This is normative argument, arguing for the moral and enlightened manner in which to view a particular community. But, to me, the take seems to be that people that do not share this must be marginalized, suppressed, even punished. Check out FIRE's website (http://www.thefire.org/) if you want to see how tolerant of dissent people like this ultimately seem to be.
