"Most Americans believe that it's a "problem" that Republicans are transphobic. A new YouGov poll asked Americans whether they thought that certain issues were a "problem" for either party. 44% said that transphobia was "a major problem" among Republicans, and another 24% said they thought it was "a minor problem." 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 "hostility toward immigrants.""
A YouGov survey of 1,107 U.S. adult citizens asked whether various issues were 'a problem' for either major party. Forty-four percent labeled transphobia a 'major problem' among Republicans and 24% labeled it a 'minor problem,' while 32% said it was not a problem. Forty percent labeled 'transgender ideology' a 'major problem' for Republicans and 20% called it a 'minor problem,' with 41% saying it was not a problem. Respondents ranked 'hostility toward immigrants' highest for Republican problems and placed transphobia second. Respondents listed 'tolerance of political violence,' 'wokeness,' 'elitism,' 'transgender ideology,' and 'gender ideology' as top Democratic problems, with misogyny, transphobia, homophobia, and hostility toward immigrants near the bottom.
