Oh I didn't see the comments. Glad they disabled the comments. This video seemed to have the most disproportionate number of thumbs down of all the other vids out, so was curious.. Adam was talking to American gay kids.. He was giving them a more hopeful future. IMHO,Many who objected to what Adam said ,were upset because he didn't mention all the countries who are terrible to gay people. That wasn't the reason for Adam's talk.. He was there to give the kids a forum and to discuss his experiences. He was not there to portray the world situation. It was in London -- so not American gay kids.
Some of the thumbs down were probably from people who do not think gay people should be tolerated.
But the comment that it is not "less taboo" everywhere is really valid -- not a reason for a thumbs down -- but it is true.
Homosexuality is still a crime in 72 countries. And even countries with no legal barriers, such as the US, record shocking levels of hate crimes – there were 53 transgender murders from 2013 to 2015 and not a single one was prosecuted, for example.
