yes i agree there is alot of history associated with the GLBT community and the oppression that has been documented over the many years -- today there has been several posititve changes in today's society ie: Lawrence et al V. Texas (2003) being the most recent Supreme Court case ref to sodomy laws being struck down, so thus with this happening it paves the way for society to realize we DO exist regardless if they like it or not -- we gay and lesbians have a long way to go still but the battle is still being heard and the advocates are still working on the many issues we are asking for -- ie: same benefits as the hetrosexuals enjoy, adoption/child rearing, marriage being recognized and legal and etc etc -- then theres the historical events worldwide ref to the GLBT community -- ie: Canada voting to legalize same sex marriages, Holland and Austria or Switzerland (if i recall correctly as im at the moment unsure which) has recognized same sex unions for years and those countries has had no significant problems im aware of and has a general overall acceptance to the GLBT community and yes i agree that if one is to investigate the past history of the community and can see the changes from the past to present day -- the changes are noticiable and moving into a positive direction
