People know we exist in sizeable numbers, but still hate us and will resist any influence or activity by us. Still, as long as we stay on that path (we're already getting some acceptance among the artsy and intellectual, just like gays did at first) we'll get the same mainstream acceptance, and the same attention paid to discrimination and bias, in the next couple of decades.
