Homework Help: English 11

Is the following an example of metaphorical language?
if marriage equality is a civil right, then denying it on the basis of (innately felt) sexual orientation is, like discrimination on the basis of skin color, simple bigotry.

No. It's about bigotry whether by sexual orientation or race.

Two unlike things are not compared here.
