"PRRI data does not paint a portrait of American young men suddenly becoming more pious in recent years... Instead, it is American Gen Z women who have moved religiously." New op-ed from @melissadeckman.bsky.social in @religionnews.com.web.brid.gy: religionnews.com/2025/03/07/t...

Among other findings: • 67% of Americans now support same-sex marriage, up from 54% in 2014 • Democratic support has risen to 83%—an 18-point increase since 2014 • Half of Republicans (50%) now support same-sex marriage, a notable shift from 35% a decade ago More: www.prri.org/research/lgb...

"Looking under the hood, we've seen some younger Republicans trending more conservative, and that's brought the national average down in some of our measures" From today's conversation on Americans' support for LGBTQ rights between @melissadeckman.bsky.social and Kelsy Burke, Ph.D.

Excited to be in conversation today with Kelsy Burke today, at noon. Please join to hear more about our findings and the state of LGBTQ rights in America today.

NEW: A national survey released today by PRRI tracks Americans’ views on LGBTQ rights across all 50 states and the District of Columbia and provides an updated profile of LGBTQ Americans, based on interviews with more than 22,000 adults throughout 2024. Full report: www.prri.org/research/lgb...

"In PRRI surveys, an increasing percentage of Republican men and women agree that “society as a whole has become too soft and feminine.” The % of Republican men who endorse this idea has increased from 68% in 2011 to 79% in 2024. The increase among Republican women is even larger — from 41% to 67%."

Where do Americans stand on LGBTQ rights? Next week, join us for a conversation about new PRRI survey data on support for LGBTQ rights across the U.S. featuring @melissadeckman.bsky.social and Kelsy Burke, sociology professor at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln www.facebook.com/share/18SbRT...
