As you said, stereotypes like that are gonna take years to overcome. I do believe that seeing gay people on TV in shows (such as 'Bind Date' and whatnot) and adverts are making a step towards 'normalising' gay people into society, but it'll be a while before they're truly seen as 'normal'.
If everyone practised your idea, though, I'm certain that we'd be one step closer to being seen as 'normal'. Great idea

He did Like twice I think, on the sofas and in the party room thing when india was in the house. He’s talked about her stance on gay rights a LOT more behind her back at various occasions tho, and has enveloped it into being prude when him and Andrew were provoking her.

I think the thing is, a lot of gay people get enveloped in the lgbt community and surround themselves in it. In college my form tutor or w/e you call them tried to get me to join an lgbt group on the campus. I tried it out and a lot of the people there enforced that stereotype. When you’re young and singled out and you’re given a group of people like that you’re bound to become a part of it, I just don’t think these communities should be so separate because it puts a focus on gay people in both positive and negative ways. Both of which I think are bad like I don’t agree with positive discrimination.

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

I haven't heard Shane J mention other countries even once?
