If I understand the question correctly, you're not asking for my opinion of homosexuality, but whether modern nations can accept it as lifestyle choice equal to but different from heterosexuality.
I don't think so. First, because any given nation is a group of societies, some urban, mostly rural, and rural culture is notoriously conservative (and I'm being judgemental, here, just stating the obvious) on all fronts. Whatever isn't commonly accepted, simply isn't acceptable, at all.
Of course, it's possible for a national culture that's largely urban-based to drag its rural and more conservative elements along in passing laws, but that's a dodge: it only deals with the legal aspects of the issue, not the issue of acceptance, itself.
Bottom line: I'm not convinced that homosexuality has been accepted by modern Amero-European society, though there are pockets within the culture where a sufficient number of people have established it either as a tolerated minority culture, or as a tensely accepted alternate culture of substance and power.
