like i said, if im going to base my opinions in the environment in which i live, i would say society is not sexist or homophobic, but i gotta see beyond that.
changes are good yes, but we can't assume the exception is the rule.

those changes have more to do with structural economic changes. in my own 3rd world country of birth a lot has changed from my grandparent's generation based simply on the fact the needs of the economy change and that more women are in university careers today than there are men (same here in 'merica by the way). gender roles are mostly a matter of economics-- except in the land of the ayatollah where fuckwads rule by decree.
