I'd like to see that too, although I am Christian, I don't agree with the big deal on homosexuality.
If you think there's a stigma to being homosexual... just wait until someone finds out you are trans. Plenty of trans prostitutes meet their end like that. To say nothing of the public humiliation one might suffer if their 'stealth' (transmen and transwomen often leave behind their entire 'former lives' to begin anew as they feel they should have been from the start) is broken. The emotional trauma of losing many of your friends, and your job, and years of work tends to do that to someone.
Transpeople even had to fight for recognition from the GL(B) community. Maybe you're used to seeing GLBT(QIetc) these days... but it wasn't always that way. They're in a better spot now than they've been in the past, but the road is far from ended
There are homosexual women too, you know
Cock ain't all it's crocked up to be.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
