Most Americans believe that it’s a ā€œproblemā€ that Republicans are transphobic.

A new YouGov poll asked Americans whether they thought that certain issues were a ā€œproblemā€ for either party. 44% said that transphobia was ā€œa major problemā€ among Republicans, and another 24% said they thought it was ā€œa minor problem.ā€ Only 32% of respondents said it wasn’t a problem.

Transphobia was the second most likely issue to be labeled a problem by respondents, after ā€œhostility toward immigrants.ā€ ā€œTolerance of political violence,ā€ ā€œconspiracy thinking,ā€ ā€œwhite supremacy,ā€ ā€œhomophobia,ā€ and ā€œfascismā€ followed closely behind.

Oddly, 40% of respondents said that ā€œtransgender ideologyā€ was ā€œa major problemā€ for Republicans, and another 20% said it was ā€œa minor problem.ā€ 41% said that they didn’t think it was a problem at all for Republicans.

    You’ve given is no evidence, spewed false accusations and ad hominems. The fact you so quickly brushed 50 Shades of Grey aside - an erotic fanfic turned film that had a theatrical fucking release - so quickly just you can whine about trans people again says more about you than me.

      You didn’t read a word I wrote.

      Sorry, unless I misunderstood and you think 50 shades of gray should be part of 6th grade english? Because it was such a deep and profound novel… and not straight up pornography.
