Gays have the same rights as everyone else in the US and in a few locals more.
Which States violate Federal Civil Rights laws by denying people jobs on the basis of sexual preference?
As for social inequities I find that unlikely. I don’t know of any forms requiring people to list sexual preference nor how one tells by looking at people. You may discern ethnic or racial groups or gender on sight but not sexual preference.
Most of their groups and agencies are for the purpose of activism and social networking. How does that benefit the public at large?
Many groups have been systematically victimized over the past and some prejudices remain yet no other group is more invisible to society as gays. They can come from any walk of life but unless you ask or they have reason to say you cannot tell.
It is not that as individuals they are unaccepted or unacceptable as is the case with other groups.
Even as a group they are excepted in all but their own eyes. There it would seem they more wish to be first among equals, so to speak, and seek special status.
Much is perhaps a new found freedom to flaunt their sexuality. Some may enjoy shocking the more stayed types. Often as a group they come across as spoiled children always wanting more.
I once heard someone say that it had gone from the love never spoken to the love that just won’t shut up.
People tend to have more of a problem with activism than with sexual proclivity or life style.
But it seems a phenomenon of modern society that nearly everyone seeks victim status.
