There seems to have been a big shift in attitudes in the last ten years - of course there are still homophobes here, and the Church occasionally pontificates on it being a sin - but for the most part, people seem to have realised that *shock horror* gay people aren't a threat. The visibility of gay people in the media, like JB, has helped enormously, but in general society seems to have become much more accepting. I occasionally read with horror the actions of the Christian right in America - a country that I always grew up thinking was far more liberal than Britain - and it makes me grateful I live here. Not many things can achieve that!

I'll stop hijacking your thread with my politics now - sorry about that!
