The right to love who you want to love has been challenged since the dawn of time. Hetero normative standards have been pushed for thousands of years. While it's now legal to marry who you want to, queer people only received that right in the past 25 years.

Pass Queer marriage as a bill so it can't be taken away like what happened with Roe V. Wade.

People find that TV nowadays is "too gay". That it's pushing homosexuality onto children, but gay people have existed for thousands of years. Now that gay people can exist out with the rest of society, heterosexual people feel threatened by their presence.

solution: Keep pushing for normalizing queer characters in media so that it becomes just as normal as heterosexual characters.

I had a discussion once with someone about a book, which i knew featured an LGBTQ relationship. This person had read the book not knowing this and came to me afterwards describing the book as good in the beginning until they made the characters gay. They then explained to me how they had been raised in an environment where these kinds of things weren't normal. This is an example as to why it's important to represenmt these things in media, to normalize it.

"But things are changing, and gaming is mirroring increased LGBTQ+ visibility in TV and film,"(Macdonald).

Representation in media is becoming increased, but with that comes people seeing it as strange.

"Research by sociologists shows that heterosexuals are willing to extend "formal rights" to same-sex couples -- policies such as family leave, hospital visitation, inheritance rights and insurance benefits. Yet they are unwilling to grant them "informal privileges" such as the freedom to express affection in public places by holding hands or sharing a kiss -- or whether they can get a custom wedding cake,"(Ghaziani).

Some Heterosexual people feel "support gay rights" until they have to see it. Some people even say that it is pushing it onto them. When they are doing the exact same thing as any other heterosexual couple.

I once heard a joke that went like this,"The only way to cure homosexuality is with a bullet."

Making jokes like this normalize the dehumanization of queer people.

"Henry is among a number of Canadians posting online invites to their homes, welcoming abortion-seekers from U.S. states that are outlawing the procedure,"(The Spectator).

Outlawing abortion does not stop abortion, it just makes is more difficult for people in need to find access to one.

I once had a conversation where someone had expressed some distaste for a TV channel called GAY USA. Just because it was an exclusively queer channel. This person found it ridiculous for a queer channel to exist. While predominantly heterosexual relationships and people have been depicted in media for years.
