Anti-LGTBQ+ hate crim are on the perhaps most importantly, numero Republin-domated state legislatur, anti-gay legislatn has been enacted, nng the gamut om prohibns on genr-affirmg therapi for kids to bans on drag events and discsns of genr inti public schools. Pollg shows ltle evince of a reversal public opn when to support for LGBT several years which the polil bate around gay rights subsid, and Pri march and Pri Month celebratns beme largely unntroversial affairs, would seem that the Uned Stat is the midst of a natnwi backlash on an issue that appeared to be yet, spe the GOP’s vastatg bigotry, mastream acceptance of gay Amerins has never been stronger. Pollg om jt last year shows that 8 10 Amerins oppose anti-gay discrimatn employment, hog and public acmodatns (and that clus nearly two-thirds of Republins) Congrs, last year’s landmark Rpect for Marriage Act, which provid feral protectn for same-sex marriag, was supported by 12 Republin senators and 39 GOP Hoe members (along wh every Democrat both chambers).
THE 8 TOP GAY CIS FOR 2023
When Rev. Jerry Falwell met wh a group of gay Christians recently, he found himself the unual posn of beg on the receivg end of anti-gay protts. One protter — the Rev.

In the 2022 electn, Republin ndidat blue and purple stat who ran on a msage of hostily to LGBTQ+ rights, particularly anti-transgenr ads, fared, was not long ago that open and public homophobia was as owned upon as public displays of racism and misogyny. Havg largely kept their homophobia check, bee of prevailg social norms, they received tac permissn om Republins to leave their closets and broan their attacks to gay rights wr foc on trans kids has bee a GOP stalkg horse for Republin voters foced on “tradnal valu. ”Acrdg to Evan Wolfson — a longtime gay rights activist and founr of Freedom To Marry, which advot for same-sex marriage — while trans issu are not as well unrstood by the broar public as an issue like same-sex marriage, the GOP’s “attacks on trans people is jt part of the overall stokg of divisn and rentment.
Both have ltle to do wh protectg trans kids but everythg to do wh the hatred of gay people and what their acceptance Amerin society reprents.
” Red-state policians ph anti-gay legislatn both bee ’s popular wh their most engaged nstuents, and bee they have ltle fear of an electoral backlash led by pro-gay rights voters. So like abortn and votg rights, gay rights have bee yet another issue that magnifi the growg blue state/red state divi which where you live creasgly term how many rights you daily stori of anti-Pri actns are prsg, even if they reprent a vol mory.
