Transgender Agenda Remains Unpopular

Years of transgender activism have still not convinced most Americans that there are more than two genders, and a majority don’t want teachers going behind parents’ backs on the subject.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 72% of American Adults agree with the statement that “there are two genders, male and female,” including 60% who Strongly Agree. Twenty-three percent (23%) disagree, including 13% who Strongly Disagree. These findings are just slightly changed from a year ago, and remain about the same as when we first asked this question in December 2021. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
