I think it's more complicated than that, at least in America.

IMHO part of the issue is that America isn't a single culture. There's a big difference between the acceptance of LGBTQ culture between rural vs. urban, coastal vs. south, and pop culture vs. work culture.

There's also a major backlash against LGBTQ culture. E.g. I don't think that you can say that it is fully mainstream culture as long as we have the various Don't Say Gay laws and bans on gender affirming care.
