2010s in LGBT rights

This is a list of notable events in LGBT rights that took place in the 2010s.

Overview

Plaintiffs celebrate outside the Supreme Court on 26 June 2015 following same-sex marriage legalization in the United States nationwide.

During the 2010s, acceptance of LGBT people slowly increased in many parts of the world.[1][2] Marriage for same-sex couples was an ongoing debate in many nations, while over eighteen nations legalized same-sex marriage.[3][4]

In June 2011 the United Nations Human Rights Council passed the UN's first-ever motion condemning discrimination against gays, lesbians and bisexuals commissioning a report on the issue.[5] During an ABC News interview in 2012, Barack Obama expressed his support for gay marriage, becoming the first US President to do so.[6] Although many nations allowed gays and bisexuals to serve in their militaries, a major milestone came in September 2011 when the US abolished its "Don't ask, don't tell" policy.[7][8]

In 2015, Ireland became the first nation to legalize same-sex marriage via referendum.[9] In 2017, Leo Varadkar became Ireland's first openly gay Taoiseach,[10] joining the ranks of other nation's first openly gay and lesbian heads of state in the 2010s.

In April 2015, former olympic athlete Caitlyn Jenner came out as a transgender woman, and was subsequently called the most famous openly transgender person in the world,[11] and on June 26 of that year, same-sex marriage was legalized in all 50 states of the U.S. as the Supreme Court ruled in a 5–4 vote that refusing to grant marriage licenses to gay and lesbian couples violated the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution. Organizations such as the Boy Scouts,[12] Girl Scouts[13] and the Episcopal Church announced acceptance of transgender people[14] in the 2010s.

However, LGBT rights supporters faced obstacles with the implementation of laws curbing expression of homosexuality in Russia and China,[15][16][17] as well as in the United States, with the Trump administration's decisions to reinstate the ban on transgender people serving in the military and the rescission of protections for transgender students.[18][19]
