What's next for the gay rights movement

It may be OK, soon, for a woman to marry a woman and a man to marry a man everywhere in the United States. But it's not even close to being OK for a boy to like Barbies and sparkly pink dresses or to swish when he grows up—or for a girl to be so masculine that people nearly do a double take trying to figure out which sex she fits. It's not OK, yet, for someone apparently born male to grow into womanhood, or for someone who started life considered female to make it clear he's a man. As for the rest of us, we are still, far more than we understand, herded unnecessarily by our sex—by the stereotypes associated with how a woman or a man should act.
