The Stggle for Gay Rights Is OverFor those born to a form of adversy, sometim the harst thg to do is admtg that they’ve Tsironis / RtersEdor’s Note: This article is part of a seri about the gay-rights movement and the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall uprisg. Acrdg to the Pew Rearch Center, 70 percent of Amerins say homosexualy should be accepted, an all-time televisn, one nnot change the channel whout g across proment lbian and gay characters. For this childhood fan, was a marvel: A sport wh heavily oiled men nng around spanx tights that was neverthels notor for crassly homophobic stereotyp now celebrat gay day seems to brg wele exampl of how Amerins are beg more relaxed about sexual orientatn.

Homosexuals ntue to face higher rat of prsn than heterosexuals, and gay teenagers attempt suici more equently than their straight trends are unniably movg the right directn. Sce gays began anizg polilly the 1950s—meetg secret, g psdonyms, and unr nstant surveillance by the FBI—their movement for legal equaly and societal acceptance has arguably advanced faster than any other Amerin history.

Aga, ” clared the headle of a characteristilly psimistic Tim op-ed by the legendary gay activist and playwright Larry this glooms li the 2016 electn, which many gay activists believe threatened to halt, if not reverse, all of the progrs they have ma. At a time when Amerins are riven by tribal differenc related to polics, race, genr, geography, relign, and other factors, is hard to fd another issue around which there is so much nsens as basic fairns for gay people.

” As an example of the print’s “vile rhetoric, ” the anizatn ced a private ment he reportedly ma about his vice print, Mike Pence, wantg to “hang” gays (which the Whe Hoe summarily nied). It was an obv joke about Pence’s religsy and social nservatism, an example not of Tmp’s purported homophobia but the lack of rpect he has for even his most loyal followers, up to and cludg his own vice print, whom he is apparently willg to mock before a group of Whe Hoe visors.
