However, I just checked a recent poll (2020) and 56% of the population approved of same-sex marriage. Maybe the USA will elect an open LGBT President this decade.

This ruling for "freedom of speech" based on religious conviction breaks precedence since it the "Christian" web site designer sites a client who did not make a request. We have to wait for two right-wing justices to die or resign, and be replaced by moderate-liberal justices more in line with the thinking of the majority of the population of the United States -- which favors the rights of LGBT individuals. According to widely respected Pew Research, anywhere from 70 - 75% of the public now favors equality and non-discrimination based on sexual preference. The same ratio of people objects to the rescinding of reproductive rights (overturning Roe vs. Wade), the bombshell ruling in 2022 which helped cost the Republican Party control of the U.S. Senate and limited Congressional Seat losses on the Democratic side to a handful of individuals which can be explained by Census reapportionment and racial gerrymandering. All this nefarious SCOTUS ruling on "gay web site" design will do is cause confusion and will have no real effect on LGBT equal rights. If a business in any area wishes to put up a sign saying "gays not welcome", it will merely result in destroying business for them in any areas that are not in the rural deep South or other areas where evangelicals might feel comfortable with it. SCOTUS is digging the grave for the moderate - 'country club" wing of the Republican Party which will suffer the effects of this in the upcoming 2024 elections.

Even if it were to pass the House, which it probably would not, it would never come up for a vote in the Senate (the Democrats control that chamber).

There are some out gay or bi male actors who are making it now as romantic "heterosexual" male leads -- Ben Barnes for example of Netflix's hugely successful romantic drama Bridgerton can probably get whatever "straight" male role he wants. As for the series Teen Wolf, few of the over 60 hot male actors (I have kept track) except for Superman Tyler Hoechlien and All-American Cody Christian. It is not the past generation where actors like Rupert Everett can legitimately claim that coming out held back his career. Would Colton Haynes have made it big if he had not come out? I am not sure. Would he have had his problems if he were NOT gay -- his father reportedly killing himself because he was? Many of us can related to his problems. I think that is the real issue.
