I don't know, I hear way worse stuff, and far more often, in every day conversations, either directly or eavesdropped, than I do here. I would say on the whole the CP community is actually more progressive than the average population, and definitely more progressive than the average sports fan.

Of course, what people say out loud without thinking vs. what people thoughtfully type out on a forum with rules that restrict offensive language are night and day, so I'm sure it's much worse than what I actually see on here.

In short, a lot of progress has been made in the last few years for LGBT people, especially here in the States, but there's still a LOT of work to do.
