Turtle vs the Hare
The only thing I am sure of is that human sexuality has always been screwed up. Quick searches on the internet will quickly uncover weirdness if not total depravity regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. A quick search of rape statistics, jealousy murders and violence, viagra sales, penis, boob, or butt enlargement, other plastic surgery, divorce statistics, marriage and relationship counseling, and not to mention media and advertising manipulation of societies wacked out dance with it's own sexuality are all pretty good indicators of where humanity is with sex.
Passing laws against sexual descrimination should be a no brainer, however society is certifiably insane when it comes to sexuality. The reality is we are a society insecure, fearful and sacredly protective of sex on the one hand and totally obsessed with sexual naughtiness and/or pervisity on the other. Damn, what I am trying to say is we are asking the asylum inmates (regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity) to come up with the new rules.
This is not to say people who are descriminated against should give up, but considering the field they are addressing impacts an individuals imperfect relationship with sex, going slow and patiently accumulating small victories may get them there quicker in the end.
