It Gets Better.... IF

http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/11/11/it-gets-better-but-mostly-if-you-live-in-a-rich-democratic-country.html

In 2014, being queer is starting to be more and more socially accepted. Or so we think, as Americans. The It gets better campaign features a wide variety of out social figures telling LGBT youth that things will get better. That someday, they'll accept themselves and be accepted. But this article brings up an overlooked point. It only really get's better if you live in a rich, democratic country, like the USA where acceptance of queer people and activism for LGBT rights are growing.
