And here's why.
Some tremendous steps toward LGBTI equality have been taken of late - the gay marriage referendum in Ireland being one particularly inspiring example. There's still a ways to go, of course, but overall it's encouraging to see acceptance growing in the public consciousness.

One last thing - this video contains mild spoilers for The Last of Us: Left Behind DLC. Consider yourself warned.
