It is even taboo in some reform circles where continuity can come from the father.

Yet, a Jewish gay couple's wedding is not taboo since they will likely pass the tradition to their kids and maintain the heritage.

The parents of a gay Jew will likely be as dramatic as your former boyfriend's mother if their gay son decides to marry outside the community. They would rather see their grandchildren be raised Jewish to keep the heritage. So the mother of this hypothetical gay Jew will nag for his partner to convert.

A male Jew marring a female non-Jew is probably more of a big deal in the orthodox circles where a Cohen male cannot even marry a convert to Judaism.
