None. That's why they are now focusing on fringe issues like who can use a bathroom.

Where is this coming from exactly? Are you part of the community? Are you reading gay online magazines? Anyways, Trump not making LGBT rights a top priority is personally the least of my concerns with him. FYI, he took down all mention of LGBT from the white house website. What priorities he has.

That would be the righty tighties who are focusing their energy on who can use what bathroom and passing laws. There was no issue. They made it into an issue due to hatred, fear, and paranoia. People are reacting to the tighty righties.

No one gets fired for being gay. Gays just want to be a "protected class" so they can sue if they are fired for anything or feel discriminated, etc.

At least in m corporate world, gays are treated like a protected class and get away with saying this most woild be fired for. There's a gay dude on my floor who I swear does nothing but gossip with the girls. Calls them "*******" and is constantly telling stories about his nights out . . .of course his manager is afraid to say anyhting

Ignorant, immature, and incorrect.

People can still be denied employment and housing for no other reason than being gay. Does being daft make you a homophobe or does being a homophobe make you daft?

My gay son says the exact same thing. Cancel the gay Pride Parade.

You can be denied employment for being Red Headed. This does not happen at most companies.

Have a gay friend who is a... Republican. Basically because he has a side business. He just ignores the religious faction as the rest more closely fit who he is. Watch stereotypes, they dont always fit. Neither he nor his partner are anything like that guy from The Birdcage.
