Article 3:  

Paul Brewer is stating the information that has accumulated over time about gays and how acceptance for them has changed over time. He has stated a graph that shows the opinions of people when they had asked questions about gays and gay rights. Paul develops this but having facts backed up by a long line of research and evidence that has been collected over time. Paul explores the percentages and evidence that has been discovered and goes over what the people though at that time. Paul’s purpose is to inform us of the information that has been collected and to let us see what the people thought at that time in history. This work helps me to see what people though in the 2000 about gays and gays rights, also I can see the facts that have been collected.
