Issue Paper: Discrimination and the Progression of Rights
For decades it has been a struggle for people of LGBTQ community to feel like they
possess the same rights as the rest of the population. While some countries and states have
implemented equality and protection measures for LGBTQ people, others have made major
pushbacks by creating homophobic legislations and allowing for discrimination against the gay
population. Rights regarding sexuality have always been subject to disagreement ever since our
first colonizers, but they have also gained a substantial amount of support over the years and
especially since the Cold War. With the help of critical theory, postmodernism, and queer theory
the evolution and advancement of gay rights has not only progressed tremendously since the
early 90s, but has also become more easily understood and explained as well.
Dating back to the end of the Cold War era, in the early 1990s, tension was high when it
came to gay rights making an appearance to the public because the conservative movement was
gaining momentum.
