We Couldn't Have Done It Without Them.
i so totally get this impulse, and love the idea. i just love allies, in general -- straight allies of lgbt folks, of course, but any allies, any person who steps outside of their own privilege and says, i stand with you!
maybe you could have some kind of event where straight folks get in free, queer folks make some sort of donation, and you give the money to some other cause, some cause that is not specifically about queer folks. not sure what it would be -- maybe immigration reform? standing with dream act kids? some cause that queer folks should be allies of, and you could give the donation on behalf of, in honor of, all the straight allies who came through for us.

Ex-Gays Give Up on the Whole "Ex-Gay" Thing.
and how exactly is this fair to the (presumably) heterosexual women they marry? talk about a mixed-libido relationship. i hope those ladies are paying attention to your "monogamish" letters and posts!
