Makes you realize how slow the US is when it comes to change. I wonder how many more decades until the Equal Rights Amendment is actually ratified. I wonder how many more centuries until we get an amendment for gay rights

Well, in a many states people can be fired due to their sexual orientation (this pretty much exclusively negatively impacts the LGBT community), there's also states trying to actively discriminate against LGBT community when it comes to adoption/fostering of children. So I'd say the right to be treated as equals. These are some basic examples.

Straight people can also be fired for being straight. Sexual orientation is not protected. With adoption are some politicians trying to ban it or is it already banned? Is it illegal in any state for gays to adopt?

The United States was pretty much on par with all the early adopters. Im not sure what the point of the topic was, but the US certainly wasnt dragging its feet with suffrage. At least relative to all the other countries in the world.

Just for perspective on how slow this was, black men could vote before white women.

The US granted women the right to vote fairly early, actually.

No. That lacks a massive amount of perspective.

The US was less than 150 years old at that point. The founders fought a Revolutionary War to establish a new nation and then citizens fought a Civil War that resulted in more American casualties than any other war since. Add in the expansion Westward and the Industrial Revolution, and you can see there was so much activity and change that happened in such a short amount of time. Seriously, compare it to other established nations that have mostly been around for several hundred or even thousands of years.

You say that as if the US was decades behind the rest of the world on this, they weren't.

Elizabeth Warren should be given the nomination and Presidency, that way it would be more symbolic that we got a female President exactly 100 years from when women were able to vote. #ItsTheirTurn

How about we wait until we get a better prospect instead of jumping the gun, guy.

On that note, how easy is it for a single straight man to adopt a kid?
