I think your memory is failing you. That was a huge issue 8 years ago and a major reason that Hillary didn't win all the right states.
Another thing about Norway: the country had a gay Finance Minister (Per-Kristian Foss from the Conservative Party) serving under a Prime Minister who was a Christian Democrat (Kjell Magne Bondevik). And that was 20 years ago.

Yeah, it was a massive issue in 2016. I hear minimumal grumbling now, at least comparatively.
