Same sex couples have fought and continue to fight for equal rights. During my field observation on Sunday at LowBrow the atmosphere was more relaxed with a lot less people. It consisted of people ranging from their late twenties to their early forties. People tended to be more spread out at tables, enjoying their conversations while sitting down and eating and drinking. The conversations seemed to be more civil with no need for shouting over people or bumping into anyone. One particular same sex couple where dining together that night. The men were facing one another with the table between them, enjoying a meal together with some drinks. Their romantic relationship became quite clear when they held one hand together on top of the table. The occasional smile and kiss was shared between the two every now and then. This couple did not display the same tendencies in which the heterosexual couple did the other night. They kept their affection more private from the world almost as if it was a secret. Homosexuality has recently become more widely accepted, but it has a lot of room to grow still. Same sex couples face discrimination on an everyday basis and still do not have the same rights as heterosexuals do, such as: discrimination in the work force and being harassed on the streets if showing their sexual identities. In recent years’ efforts have been increased
