What happens to the gay rights movement when same-sex marriage is nationwide?

good question.  unlike most historical "civil rights movements" (LGBT activists really believe they are just that), they have plenty of backing from capital and a base of support in the politically active upper-middle class.  LGBT is not and has never been an underclass or working-class movement, and doesn't challenge the rights of capital to create a world in its own image. 

my hunch is that they don't go away or move on to other, more important issues, and instead focus on lobbying for legislation that would further "advance the cause"; perhaps push for soft quotas in hiring and university admissions, making it difficult to terminate the employment of a self-styled LGBT, and perhaps a push for legal recognition of a third, catch-all "non-binary" gender.
