kind of bad. I mean, we suffer a lot of homophobia still and it's hard for us to live in such conservative families like most of gays do. But the thing that bothers me the most is the inside group of gay men that thinks that the fight for LGBTT rights is only for males, as if the lesbians doesn't mean nothing and they like to steal a lot of protagonism from the females (see RPDR and drag queen becoming something fashion like a way to be a woman without suffering the real things a woman do, wanting to be a part of feminism, misoginy etc) and they know it.
I'm very activist about it in my city, country, with my friends who are only LGBTT people and we make a lot of artistic interceptions together, not only for gay rights but also for society's too. But it's kind of hard when gay men act like women don't mean nothing. We have to know our privilege as men in society before anything.
Slay Brazil
Also there's the conservatives. Also a lot of politics here are a part of a religion and try to put their religion down our throats, believes that "heterophobia" exists and says the ONLY concept of family is = man, woman and a child. 
They are truly pathetic.
But Slay
