Does everyone secretly despise LGBTs although many openly claim to accept and love it, including LGBT members and allies? Are there really people who see LGBT as of equal worth as heterosexuals?

No! Absolutely not. Many people support queer identifying people, I do not think people would lie about it. Most people just don't care because they realize other people's sexualities and genders don't concern them!

I do think that there may be some who harbor discomfort towards LGBT but because of societal beliefs, try to appear supportive. However, I do feel like there are countless LGBT members and allies out there who truly believe in LGBT rights - as seen in gender rights, religion rights, racial rights and so on. So yes, I do believe that there are people who view LGBT as of equal worth as heterosexuals. Just because LGBTs are few in comparison to non-LGBTs does not mean that everyone secretly despises them. It may be surprising if you discover a friend to be LGBT because its not as prevalent, but that surprise does not mean rejection and hatred!

Yes, there are. In fact, I fully support the LGBT community and I woulf never despise anyone for not being heterosexual. Equality is important for everyone, including LGBT and I stongly belive that no one should be criticized for being diffrent.

Oh course there are! I'm gay and my parents, family, and friends have been incredibly loving and supportive and I personally think that my sexuality has nothing to do with my inherent worth as a human being.

People should all be equal. Nobody should discriminate each other. I think part of the LGBT community is against heterosexuals, but most are not.

Yes, there are lots of people who see everybody as equal. After all, we are all people no matter who we love. Granted, there are also people who pretend to be supportive due to the fact that their homophobia may make their friends or family dislike them, but not all people are like that.

Many people think of the LGBTQIA community as equals, activists campaign for their rights, everyone is the same underneath it all and everyone is individual inside and out, nobody can be blamed for how they are, everyone is different, it doesn't matter if it's sexuality, gender, appearance, personality, there is no higher power, no superior traits and no one should have the small mindedness to think so.

I am bisexual and I have a lot of straight friends who accept me and my other gay friends as well. A lot of people are accepting out there, you just need to find the ones that are :)

Many actually support LGBT community. But there are some who makes fun though. It depends on person

I am member of LGBTQ+ and I do see our community equal to heterosexuals. Because the fact who you love or the fact your gender is shouldn't define us. Professional life, political life and even personal life and friendship has nothing to do with our orientation or gender, it's only affecting people we are dating and that's all. And I think I am not only the one who thinks in this way, there are many people who don't see homosexuals different than heterosexuals.
