Most LGBTQ+ adults feel Americans don't accept transgender people, Pew poll finds

  • By GEOFF MULVIHILL Associated Press

LGBTQ+ people in the U.S. see lower social acceptance for transgender people than those who are lesbian, gay or bisexual, a new Pew Research Center poll found. The survey found that most LGBTQ+ adults believe there is a great deal or fair amount of acceptance for lesbian and gay people. But about half said that's not true for transgender and nonbinary Americans. The survey was conducted in January. That was just before President Donald Trump returned to office and started rolling out a series of policies aimed at transgender people, including a ban from the military and some sports competitions, as well as blocking federal spending on gender-affirming health care for those under 19.
