I’m saying shut up about being gay because we have equal rights here so the next step is to normalise being gay. Making a big deal out of it isn’t normalising it, it’s making it a big deal in both, I guess you could say, positive and negative ways

LGBT people in a lot of other countries? They don't. Far from it. So what's the issue with Shane J mentioning that places (even his home country) don't have equal rights?

Shane J has what people in countries that oppress LGBT people don't have - a voice. And while his preaching isn't solving those issues, it's certainly raising awareness. Other LGBT 'rolemodels' will be talking about gay rights a lot and advocating for equality in those countries
