I think many people feel it has become redundant and boring, unfortunately. However, it far from irrelevant no matter what people say.
Hate crimes, gay marriage, discrimination, adoption - all issues that still need to be handled in some way. And really, until there are -equal- rights (very key word), there is going to be a need to constantly fight for one's civil rights that would natural to any other citizen.

It has certainly become morally bankrupt.
HRC concerns itself with "straight looking, straight acting" gays and lesbians only. It claims to support all of the LGBT family, but is in fact a longtime enemy of trans rights.
The gay movement is very self centered, and very racist. Everybody is white! Basically, if you are not straight looking, straight acting, white, and fairly well off, the gay rights movement is your enemy.
Being gay is not such a big deal anymore. But to them, it is. Worse, the LGBT people getting hurt the worst are getting the least help from them.
So the movement is useless unless you don't really need it to survive.

As somebody that has lived by in simple terms about all those activities on the choice area of the international it style of feels that in spite of people do all law enforcement officers are going to have their expenditures overturned from Rodney King by to Amandou Diallo and now to Sean Bell. It does not seem to count no count if we would revolt or petition or carry marches or in spite of. i seem at it greater from a Political viewpoint as my Brother is very energetic in Human Rights & Environmental Activism yet what do you hear out the mouths of maximum folk our a while. those Tree Hugging Hippies and Left Wing Loonies growing to be havoc. maximum fools have faith what Politicians tell them and what they study in the papers and people who're rich build their finished lives around exploiting others. except you would be able to make people supply up their time and take risks like dropping their residences, jobs etc to combat the combat for Freedom and Equality it relatively is in ordinary terms gonna worsen. CCTV, Patriot Acts, Globalisation and conflict on Terror are in simple terms area of the commencing up of suppression of loose Speech. I even see followers in this area hating on artists like Immortal technique because of the fact they call them crackpot conspiracy theorists yet countless what they say is actual and we are too scared to admit maximum individuals are pawns to the pastime.

That really depends on who and where you are.
Some people have reached comfort zone where gay rights are concerned, because they know and experience who they are with minimal confrontation about it.
But there are still folks that struggle. The boss may not accept your lifestyle. Your family may not be supportive and may be trying to convert you back. You may be religious and not really even support your own biology.
Western society is on the way to being balanced in regard to sexual orientation, but we still see directed violence in the news, so we aren't there yet.
