http://igfculturewatch.com/2004/06/10/reagan-and-gays-a-reassessment/ Reagan was not much worse on gay issues than Jimmy Carter, his opponent in 1980, who avoided even meeting with gay groups. Walter Mondale, Reagan's opponent in 1984, received only tepid gay support, according to gay activist Urvashi Vaid in her book Virtual Equality. Neither Carter nor Mondale made support for any gay rights measure an issue in their respective campaigns, though their party's platform included a gay rights plank.
because he worked with gay actors in Hollywood and had gay friends, Reagan was relatively tolerant. Cannon notes that Reagan was "respectful of the privacy of others" and was "not the sort of person who bothers about what people do in their own bedrooms." This attitude was consistent with Reagan's larger philosophical commitment to individual liberty and limited government.
During Reagan's presidency the first openly gay couple spent a night together in the White House.
