Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

How has gay liberation change discrimination in the last 50 years?

It has been a very difficult road for gay people but in recent years they have earned the respect they deserved. However, as some historians say, it is still a work in progress.

Today, in general terms, people show respect for gay people. Like them or not, they at least respect them. Gay people have gained many spaces in the workplace and in the corporate world. This is part of the policies of diversity established by corporations.

How has it stayed the same?

There is still too much criticism and hate against gay people. Since those days in the summer of 1969, when gay people gathered and protested in teh streets, clashed with the New York police outside the gay bar Stonewall Inn., hate against these people has been the constant in most states of the Union.

There are many people that really cannot tolerate gays and prefer to turn their backs when they see one.
