Gays are about on par with atheism in rankings like this, I'm kind of surprised atheism wasn't on this list. But yeah it hurts seeing it. There are ways to cut the data that aren't so harsh, like support for rights can be there even if they're thinking we're gonna burn.
It's because of all the harm we innately cause to society and ourselves. Can you believe that 39% of people are forced to think about gay sex all the time? It's true and it's traumatic for them to have to figure out "which one is the man and which one is the woman" as well as the implications of how two or more people without penises can still enjoy each other behind closed doors in the privacy of their own homes. And on that topic, they once saw two women holding hands in public, and now their lives will be forever changed. Let's not get into the torture they endure from pronouns, forced trans for all, and gay people just existing.
Seriously, though. The number of people both offended by LGBTQ while also telling everyone they're "trying for a child" is way too high.
