I prefer it, not expect it. I know many people because this world is a world filled with sin. I have no control of the lives of other adults; that's what governments are for. Technically, Jesus said this:
"[1] Judge not, that you may not be judged, [2] For with what judgment you judge, you shall be judged: and with what measure you mete, it shall be measured to you again. [3] And why seest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye; and seest not the beam that is in thy own eye? [4] Or how sayest thou to thy brother: Let me cast the mote out of thy eye; and behold a beam is in thy own eye? [5] Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam in thy own eye, and then shalt thou see to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye." - Matthew 7:1-5
Confession and repentence are our ways of "cast[ing] out first the beam in [our] own eye[s]." Your beliefs have no evidence, either. Prove your beliefs to be true; you can't. No beliefs can be proven true until the day of judgement. The Bible never claims women to be "chattel", in fact, Paul says to treat them with respect, so your is nonsense. Jesus himself said that we are allowed to eat shellfish. What matters in the end are the intentions of the action taken, not the action itself. The pedophilia problem was a real thing that was adressed by the church. It's pretty much gone, now.
The Christian anti gay thing is dumb
