So now your premise is that despite them being longtime customers, (and gay), only now when a wedding cake was requested did the bakery suddenly decide to discriminate against the couple?
Thats makes sense. :roll:
Yes, although I would say that the information I have does not say that either couple was actually "frequent customers". The mother of one of the gay men said that they heard about the shop through their planner, and one of the lesbians had picked up her mother's birthday cake from the other shop a year or more before. But this still comes down to they, the bakers, didn't feel the couples were "worthy", the "right kind of couple" for a wedding, for marriage. This is no different than if someone did the same thing to an interracial or interfaith couple.
