Best Answer

Yes. Such prohibition of performance or recognition separates citizens into two groups according to sexual orientation (a social characteristic generally considered to be innate and immutable), then provides benefits and privileges to one group while denying the same to the other group for discriminatory reasons. It, in effect, creates a two-tier system of citizenship, which is the hallmark of apartheid.
