A lot of bad things have happened over the course of my lifetime, but this is one area where there has been genuine progress. In my (British and non-religious) schools that I attended in the 1990s and 2000s, the average reaction to homosexuality was probably mild disgust or bemusement.

On the specific matter in the thread title, it may have been a case of "oh look, state x has legalised SSM and the world didn't end".
