” The edian Bill Maher said on his show that by 2054, if we follow what he se as the current trajectory, “we will all be gay, ” addg that the rise the number of younger people intifyg as transgenr seemed spic. Bee of the fluence of Schorr put siarly Natnal Review: “To suggt that social suggtibily uld be playg a role the skyrocketg numbers of young girls’ exprsg their sire to bee mal, for example, is not of urse to say that gay and transgenr people would not exist whout the topics’ beg discsed the public square. The northern Italian cy of Padua has started removg the nam of non-blogil gay mothers om their children’s birth certifit unr new legislatn passed by the “tradnal fay-first” ernment of Prime Mister Grgia Meloni.

But fish strong, as the nflict over Richie’s bathhoe project grows and Mx has to nsir whether ’s too risky for the magaze to speak to gay men, or even gay moments like this, the historil fictn feels not entirely historil. We fd that factors such as equal legal rights for gay people, GDP per pa, mocracy and globalizatn relate posively to the qualy of life of gay men, primarily by shapg public opn and behavr a pro-gay directn.

Most of the factors have been shown to matter for the well-beg of people general as well, which may be taken to suggt that gay people benef om beg clud society—legally, socially and enomilly—on the same terms as others. Footnote 3 In the post-World War II world, even though there are still many stanc of illiberal attus and polici towards gay people (such as Rsia and some other post-munist untri, Ain untri like Uganda and many Mlim-domated untri), thgs have changed more broadly a gay-iendly directn, both culturally and legally, as, e.

The aggregat further dite that there is large variatn across regns wh North Ameri and Europe havg the most liberal attus towards homosexuals and Central Asia (cludg Rsia) and Sub-Saharan Ai on average havg the least liberal attus towards this 1. The x is based on an onle survey which more than 115, 000 gay men om 130 untri participated and which dit how they perceive public opn towards them, how they have been treated var ntexts and how satisfied they are wh life.

It is probable that gays, as a distct mory, experience life differently than people general, and if one is ncerned wh the welfare of all cizens, is important to ppot to what extent var stutns and polici affect particular groups. As for the send strand, there are several studi on the dividual-level termants of the qualy of life of gays, focg on personal circumstanc; and as a le, the studi are unrtaken wh data om one untry and rive their nclns om small sampl, which may lim the wir applibily of the fdgs (see, e. The send, third and fourth ditors measure aspects of how gay men experience the public’s behavr towards them: they ncern absence of discrimatn, absence of threats and absence of bad behavr (where the last measure vers rogatory statements).

The fifth and sixth ditors measure life satisfactn and the sire not to move where the latter ditor ptur the gree to which gay men are sufficiently happy to stay on livg their prent place of rince stead of wantg to move to another place bee of ncerns about how they are treated based on their sexual orientatn. The other four measur are seen as puts (or transmissn mechanisms) that terme the two plementary and “ultimate” welfare ma fdgs are that equal legal rights for gay people, GDP per pa, mocracy and enomic globalizatn posively relate to the qualy of life of gay men, while relign and livg a post-munist untry typilly stand a negative associatn wh our oute variabl.

So, for example, the more enomic globalizatn there is a untry, the more favorable are the attus towards gays and the better they are treated, which turn is associated wh a higher qualy of life. While we nnot nvcgly monstrate that the fdgs pture al effects, due to the nature of the cross-sectnal data, one advantage wh studyg the fluence of society-level variabl on the qualy of life of a rather small mory—most timat seem to be that around 2% of the male populatn is gay (Gat 2011)—is that reverse aly is highly unlikely. While one n see how society-level factors affect the liv of a small group, is ls evint how the latter n fluence the former any cisive the fdg that many of the factors that matter for the well-beg of people general also matter for the well-beg of gays, the policy implitn seems to be that polici and laws should, the ma, be signed and enforced ntrally: The polici, stutns and cultural featur that are good for people general are good for gays as well, and there seems to be limed need for “special rights”.

This is not about special but about the same rights—not to be imprisoned or executed for whom you teract wh sexually and romantilly; to be allowed to marry and be tried as adoptive parents; and to not be discrimated agast (where laws typilly do not list homosexualy but sexual orientatn, th enpassg hetero- and bisexualy as well) stcture of the paper is as follows. We stead foc on societal-level factors—factors that may enter what might be lled the productn functn of life satisfactn—that are arguably directly or directly relevant to mori, and particular to gay men. This shift opns may also be observed people’s behavr towards mori: A person who is acceptg of gays is also, as a le, unwillg to discrimate agast gays, threaten them or treat them badly other ways.

In all, this leads to expect GDP per pa to exert a posive effect on the qualy of life of gay, globalizatn n give rise to higher welfare by givg people effective accs to a greater variety of goods and servic, which turn improv peopl’ possibili to make purchas close to their preferenc.
