Wait for old people to die. If you look at attitudes towards gays and gender gifted individuals by age, then those 6o+ tend to hate us. They were brought up that way, they have never met an openly gay person, they tend to follow church teachings, they are resistant to change. Unfortunately they have a record of voting in high numbers. As you drop down in age groups you start to see major changes in attitudes. These people are more resistant to religious blandishments, open to new ideas, and have seen "Will and Grace" and other positive gay role models. They tend to vote in fewer numbers however. Those in their 20's and early 30's hardly care. BUT, they don't vote so much. Now, who do politicians like to court? People who vote, i.e. old bigoted people. So, the lesson is this, the day before an election: go out and kill some old people, take their voters cards, and vote for them, the way you see fit.
