It's irrelevant that more hetero couples involve abuse because there are more hetero couples than homosexual couples. It's really that simple. I don't have the time to explain what every verse in the link you provided means, but I will gladly elaborate on a choice few if you are so interested- I can only be honest and do my best. Regardless of what they teach you on tumblr, there is a difference between Biblical submission and modern day connotations of submission. The wife and husband take different roles in the household... neither is less or more valuable, which, if the Bible really was so filled with sexism, would be a point of emphasis. The husband is the spiritual leader, just as Christ is ultimate leader of the family. And even so, the Bible also says that the wife and husband are ultimately to submit to each other.
No homophobia, no sexism, and the way I see it, no problem. A few points of contention here, but indeed, why is submission scary?
