I think the view on homosexuality was one of the fastest big shift of public opinion in the history of manking. Until the 1960s, homosexuality was a crime in some developed countries. In the 1990s, while supporting same-sex civil unions, the most progressive political leaders used to make clear that they were supporting civil unions, and not marriage, because they thought marriage would have a big opposition. In the 2010s, even conservative political leaders accept same-sex marriage.
