I can't really think of any cons.
The arguments revolve around gender confusion, devaluing man/woman marriage more than it's already been devalued, and much of it is based on the belief that sexuality is more based on choice than a inherent state of being.

There is some truth to the choice aspect and some data to back it up, but not for the majority of homosexuals. Most homos identify as being strictly homos. They are as they were born. Because quite honestly, if you realy had a choice why would you choose to be gay considering how they've been treated in the world?

Also, I think if sexuality is really a choice, we would see more fluxuations in the percentages of those who identify as gay, increasing as it has become more acceptable over time (some even think fashionable) and I haven't seen that in any data over the last 30-40 years.

EDIT: This is a pretty good debate on the subject from both sides, with the ever too rare reasoned response in opposition. A response I disagree with, but respect.
