*medicine (ex: the ban on gay people giving blood)

This one does have a rational basis.  The prevalence of AIDS and hepatitis are both much higher among MSMs than the general population.  The lifetime ban on blood donation is bunk, but for those who have abstained from such an act in the recent past (the last 1 to 5 years) they certainly should be allowed to donate.

How reliable is testing of donated blood for HIV?

can we finally be done with LGBT activism?

Well the T in LGBT wouldn't really benefit much from such a ruling.  They already feel marginalized by many LGBT activists, so I think there will definitely remain activism from that aspect.

Yes, transgender rights are 25-30 years behind gay rights and there is so much to be done.
