Sorry, my mistake. However, you are repeating the claims of crypto-homophobes that deny that anti-LGBT discrimination is still a very big problem. It is still a horrible scourge, and minimizing it is morally wrong. You may not experience too many issues due to what I imagine is a higher-middle class tech industry social status, probably in a coastal city, but others aren't so lucky. I stand by my criticism.

Then discuss how and why it's a big problem instead of making existence claims. That's my only point.

Are you seriously asking me for evidence of my claim that homophobia is a big problem? Do you need similar evidence of racism being a big problem?

No, because you've demonstrated neither the capacity nor the inclination for good-faith discussion. I'm simply clarifying my original point, since I seem to have expressed it poorly in the first place.
