Well, first of all can the f-a-g word. It shuts down the communication instantly, just as the n-word shuts downs discussions of race relations.
This conversation is way past "right to exist". No one has even gotten close to that reactionary a discussion. We're just discussing their lives and interactions in a society historically dominated in all of recorded history by heterosexuals.
All gays are accorded, and really not ever denied, "human rights" in our more or less enlightened American society of the 21st century; but the question is about the matter of "human privileges" in a sense.
The question is pretty much about marriage, and maybe the adoption of children to be raised.
Then there is the LGBT agenda of teaching children in schools, by law, in their formative years that humans can be any gender, by birth or decision; and can be any form of gender specific, or non-specific, or any combination thereof, and still must be regarded as completely normal.
In other words; "It's all good". That's going to be a harder goal to accomplish, but they're making big inroads in that direction.
