So what has the evolution of homosexuality throughout history done for people today? The trials of people in the past, their struggles, all made it possible for LGBT people now to experience a relatively safe environment where they have a chance to be accepted for who they are. People have fought for this level of acceptance for generations, and finally it has been achieved. America has gone from the death penalty and witch hunting for gay people to acceptance movements and fighting for equal rights. Throughout history people have experienced discrimination and acceptance, ups and downs, love and hate, but the journey of LGBT people will continue. The community will continue to make history.
