Arkanass is showing themselves to be who we thought they were. Fucking bigots.
Wisconsin…the south and west of the north??
(I’m from Wisconsin)
Literally 2 states where it isn’t the majority opinion
Arkansas people just go to Fayetteville, Eureka Springs, or Hot Springs. Those towns would be blue, and the rest of the state would be rated about half as well.
To be clear it’s really sad they aren’t accepted everywhere and it’s messed up they have to find lgbtq+ friendly communities like it’s the 70s. But there are some safe…r places there.
County by county would be really interesting, even if not exactly feasible.
That tracks considering Arkansas currently has residents trying to build a white only town.
Sorry to anyone in here that lives there but based on the one time in my life I’ve visited Arkansas, I left feeling that Arkansas is a complete shithole. The white pride and antiabortion billboards were something to see.
For anyone reading this who isn’t gay (or otherwise queer): imagine that even in the most accepting areas of your country, 20-30 per cent of the population outright say that you should not be accepted by society. Now imagine that a lot of the people who do think you should be accepted still find you a bit “gross” or want to put parameters around how you should be accepted and in which contexts.
I wonder how it would look if you could track not who says that homosexuality *should* be accepted but the actual position of queer people in society. Is there gonna be a gulf from people who *say* that queerness should be accepted but also in practice shun or mistreat the queer people in their daily lives, like the gulf between people who will put FUCK TERFS in their bio and then treat actual trans women as innately suspect?
Until trumps administration is able to reverse gay marriage
Then you’ll see an explosion of “I never supported it anyway”
Oh look it’s the same map of the United States again!
Anyone else notice how no matter what map you make of the United States it looks roughly like this in one way or another?
Teen pregnancy, cancer rates, diabetes rates, domestic violence rates all look more or less like this map. And the inverse of this map looks like levels of wealth, levels of education, life expectancy, and all the positive metrics.
Why is that?
I love how much New England crushes here
New England being the great place that it is! Happy to be from here and live here. Happy we have the highest numbers.
And the lightest colors on map probably watch the most gay porn and just hate themselves. Hahaha
I actually think I saw a map with data like that about that.
Crazy that Florida is is only 65, that place is gay as hell.
This is a good guide to acceptable places to live, even if you’re not gay.
Honestly, we have a come a long fucking way from 30 years ago.
Interestingly, Arkansas also has the highest number of closets per household.
Speaking as a straight cis man, it is baffling to me that so many people aren’t accepting. I think a lot of people look positively at this chart – 48/50 states where the majority are accepting; up to 85-87% accepting in certain states. But that is still a ridiculously large amount of people who aren’t accepting. I wonder what percentage of those who aren’t accepting have cheated on their partner. I wonder how many of those that use religion as their excuse for not accepting have had premarital sex. Its baffling to me that people feel like they have the right to judge what occurs between consenting adults
I can’t imagine these numbers back in the 1990s. Probably the biggest shift of public opinion in my lifetime.
It would be interesting to see the acceptance of homosexuality and political affiliation by state.
Crazy that anyone gives a shit about this in 2025.
Let people fuck whomever they want. Why do they care so much about what happens between consenting adults in the privacy of consenting adults’ bedrooms?

Almost the same colour density as:
