This June marks the 16th anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court redefining marriage and the family away from male and female unions and parenting in their landmark Obergefell v. Hodges decision.
This marked a radical turn for our nation’s understanding and practice of marriage and parenting. We now have fundamentally falsely named organizations like Men Having Babies working to erase motherhood by claiming any configuration of adults raising kids is equally valid.
This is likely why new Gallup polling data is showing declines in support for LGBT ideology. Gallup explains, “Approval of same-sex marriage, moral acceptance of gay and lesbian relations, and endorsement of gender changes are all down from peaks reached in the early 2020s.” It’s about time.
Support for such things had been declining among conservative Americans for some time. But this year charts a marked decline among more liberal citizens, who even seem to be souring on gay and lesbian relationships as seen here:
Support for same-sex relationships among liberals declined about 5 percentage points over last year, back down to 2023/2024 levels. It has been falling consistently among conservatives and independents.
Support for the legal validity of same-sex “marriage” has taken a similar tumble over the past few years as well. The number of Americans who believed such unions are valid hit a high of 71 percent in 2022 and 2023. But that number slid markedly to 65 percent this year, an overall 6-point drop. Yet, when you ask conservative Americans, we see a remarkable 18-point drop in support. Support from independents has dropped to somewhere in between.
Across the board, the declining national trendlines look like this in support for same-sex “marriage,” relationships and the morality of gender transitions:
Reason for These Declines?
So, what could be the reasons for these consequential declines for support for the gender revolution? That is a key question. No one really knows for sure.
Focus on the Family believes it has to do with the clearly destructive behavior of LGBT activists and their dramatic overreach. They falsely promised their dramatic changes to marriage, family and the definitions of male and female would not harm anyone. They promised these were just private choices between responsible adults.
Of course, that was never true. Now people are seeing this fact for themselves in dramatic ways, like this, this, this, this, this and this.
People see intentionally motherless children being acquired and paraded by gay men like this:
They are also seeing that girls and women are being displaced from safe women-only spaces by boys and men who think they are women.
People are realizing how crazy gender ideology really is in its dramatic strong-armed redefinition of what it means to be human. We predict our nation and the rest of the world are going to see more decline in support for these terribly destructive ideas.
