Nearly 80% of
gays think it's important to integrate into the greater
culture, and at least 64% are open about their sexual
orientation to at least one family member, according
to survey results released Tuesday by Logo TV network.
A majority of survey takers also said they would prefer
to live in suburbia as opposed to a city, though 58% said
they would prefer to live closer to other gay people.
Marriage equality, the environment, health care, and
the economy are the top four issues that LGBT voters
are concerned about.
Two thirds of
younger gays expect to be in a long-term relationship with
children, while fewer than one third of gays older than 35
expect the same.
"We're
trading in West Hollywood for West Texas and big disposable
incomes for disposable diapers," Lisa Sherman, Logo
executive vice president, said in a press release.
"Most important, we're integrating without abandoning
our community or sense of identity. These developments
are good for LGBT people and good for America."
The survey, in
partnership with Tru Research, included people ages 21-45
in New York and Dallas as well as research by Simmons Market
Research Bureau that included 1,800 LGBT people ages
21-59. (The Advocate)
