It is not, the American Psychiatric Association have taken homosexuality out of the book. According to some, homosexuality is about as prevalent as left-handedness, and that is not regarded as a mental abnormality either.

I want them to have the same rights as straight people, I want them to have the same protection from violence and intimidation. If everyone stopped treating gay people differently, then they would not need specific laws to protect them.
