Conservatives have spent the last several months denouncing LGBTQ teachers as “groomers” and pedophiles, with rightwing pundits often saying that they believe that talking to children about LGBTQ issues can turn kids gay. It turns out that a large number of Republicans believe that teachers can actually make children turn queer. A new Morning Consult poll showed 40% of Republican adults said that they believe teachers can influence students' sexuality and gender identity. The survey also found that 31% of Republican parents are “uncomfortable” with LGBTQ people working with their kids. In contrast, 84% of Democratic parents said that they were “comfortable” with LGBTQ people working with their kids The survey further found 6 out of every 10 Republican parents said that they oppose lessons about the LGBTQ civil rights movement in schools, and opposed lessons about sexual orientation and gender identity. Democratic parents' opposition was just 2 out of 10.
