Inferior? Or just different?

Your question makes a moot point. It's like asking why should we treat same sex couples the same as opposite sex couples when they are not the same?
Are you still harping on that stupid argument?
Oh yeah. You DROPPED the argument last time I got to the same point where you couldn't make any further argument...

Just BEING different IS NOT justification for discrimination.
Remember our discussion on "legitimate state interest"?
I book-marked the post where you acknowledged its existence, in case you were thinking of changing your story.
Or in case you had completely forgotten what it means...

Most people consider you an ignorant buffoon.
That doesn't mean we also think you should have equal rights.

And with gays, despite how inaccurate your claim is, most people think that gays should have ALL THE SAME rights and privileges that straights have with only one exception. Gay marriage.

Ergo, your claim is both unproven and irrelevant.
