Objective and purpose

Many marriages today are heterosexual. And in a country where there are very many religious people and those who are entirely or partially against same sex marriages, the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender face a major challenge in trying to blend with members of society who view homosexuality as abnormal and as a wrong choice. Homosexuals today not only face challenges of monstrous proportion in trying to convince their family, friends, colleagues and society at large but also face the challenge of rejection. This proposal seeks to dig deep into the challenges and clarifies the truth on the existing stereotypes. [All of this is nice and all, but it is not what I need to know in order to know that you understand what you need to do for your senior project.]
