Well I was under the impression that two separate cultures were emerging in the US. The metropolitan culture of the North East, the West Coast and parts of the Midwest, and then the South and the Prairie States.
What you seem to suggest here is that there might be some sort of backlash against homosexuality in the rural areas, or the areas outside of the metropolises in California, New York and perhaps elsewhere.
It's an interesting comment, but I don't know much about it.

I think there IS or is GOING to be a general backlash EVERYWERE against it. They've pushed their "lifestyle" too far to fast and people are sick to death of it.
Now, the backlash will obviously be more pronounced in some places than others, but the backlash has begun.
Of course this is just going to be breathlessly chalked up to a "growing homophobia" that they "just don't understand" and on and on it will GO.
I think when they stop acting like fit throwing teenagers maybe society WILL become willing to accept them a little bit more. Of course I don't know that THAT will ever happen. Sometimes I think that homosexuality so twists the mind of a person in knots that they loose the ability to DEAL with mainstream societies. They certainly like to seperate themselves and claim their own little "gay culture".
