      But gays still have long been under-represented in most aspects of public life, from TV and movies, to political office, to corporate CEOs, even relative to their percent of the population.
      In my lifetime, when I was young, there was practically NO mention in media of gays, and the few mentions were extremely negative, usually trying to make a villain character look more "creepy". This is not ancient history.
