The Gay Rights Movement

[pellaz]

It is difficult to break the circle of abuse. A gay life leaves its scars for a person growing up. He or she expects to be a second class citizen, fear of being physically mis treated and dismissed by their family.

i think there is a fear of being gay. Look at the social conservative sometimes posting on gayspeak. They are not out, still single and getting into the >30 year old age bracket. With 11billion people on the planet being gay is not abomination.



things would be further along if we had a focal point such as MLK was for the civil rights movement here.

Homosexuality was classified a disease until 1973

gay sex was illegal in NAmerica untill 2003 sodomy laws repealed by the federal court:

lite yellow Laws repealed or struck down before 1970.

orange Laws repealed or struck down from 1989-2002.
red Laws struck down by the Supreme Court of the United States in 2003.
