Heterosexual privilege? does it exist? what can society do about it?

Heterosexual privilege is a societal norm that all people are heterosexual. The basic civil rights and social privileges that a heterosexual person automatically receives that are denied to the LGBT community. I believe that this issue is definitely common in todays society because the LGBT community is definitely making it more aware that they are people too and that they are here. I believe that nation wide, we are trying to resolve the issue like making gay marriage legal and what not. People just need to learn how to except people the way they are and not discriminate amongst a sexual preference.
