Democrats’ Acceptance Of Sex Changes Nosedived By Double Digits In One Year, Poll Shows

Americans’ moral acceptance of sex changes is at an all-time low in part due to plummeting support among Democrats, a new poll shows.

Democrats’ support for sex changes is down by 11% over the previous year, according to the recent polling by Gallup released Tuesday.

The poll found that 38% of Americans think changing one’s gender is morally acceptable while 57% think it is morally wrong. Only 5% of Republicans support changing one’s gender, compared with 60% of Democrats — amounting to a 55-point difference between Democrats and Republicans. Forty-two percent of independents said that changing one’s gender is acceptable.

The percentage of Americans who viewed sex changes as morally tolerable fell eight points in the past five years, according to Gallup’s polling. Forty-six percent of Americans found changing genders morally acceptable in 2021, the first time the pollster asked about the issue.

Democratic Texas senate nominee James Talarico said, “I oppose gender reassignment surgeries for minors,” in a podcast episode released Monday. This came after Talarico called such surgeries “life-saving health care” three years earlier.

“I love- I’m just going to say this because it’s on my mind- the trans children who showed up yesterday at the state Capitol to advocate for their humanity,” Talarico said during a podcast episode, in 2023.
