"I do not wish to diminish or underplay the ongoing challenge presented by homophobia, and the need for equality for same sex relationships in many aspects of law, but same sex attraction is now accepted as mainstream. It is not hard to find scholarly studies of all aspects of same sex relationships, and everyday media mostly treats homosexuality as a normal variation of the human condition. There are public campaigns against homophobia, and quality sexuality education makes no assumptions about sexual orientation and teaches respect for difference."
What world does she live in? Some of that stuff is true (scholarly studies, mostly) but there's blanket statements all through the article about stuff gay people "can" do now that simply aren't true in a lot of places. :/
