Queer freshmen greatly outnumber conservatives at the university, according to a survey

A Yale Daily News survey of freshmen students at that university found that more students of the class of 2022 identify on the LGBTQ spectrum than as conservative, and that queer freshmen even outnumber other sizable demographics in the class, such as Protestants and Catholics.

The paper's survey, the results of which are composed of 864 respondents, or just over one-half of the freshman class, found that only nine percent of respondents identified as "somewhat conservative," with one percent identifying as "very conservative." LGBTQ respondents, on the other hand, greatly outnumbered conservatives in total: According to the survey, "nearly 5 percent [of respondents] identify as gay and just over 9 percent as bisexual or transsexual. Three percent opted not to answer, and the remaining 8 percent identified as asexual, ace spectrum or questioning their sexual orientation."

A 2018 Gallup poll estimated that 4.5 percent of all Americans identified as LGBTQ.

Liberal students in the class of 2022 also greatly outnumber conservatives on campus, according to The Daily News's findings.

"Nearly three-fourths" of surveyed students identified as liberal, with thirty percent identifying as "very liberal." These disparities are mirrored in the faculty composition at Yale: A 2017 Daily News survey of Yale professors found that three-quarters identified as liberal while less than 10 percent identified as conservative. Over 90 percent of faculty members in the humanities identified as liberal while that number hovered in the mid-60s for STEM faculty.

Church records show more than 100 accused priests, not 42 as stated by Bishop Malone.

I hate to mentioned it and sad to say, but that institution should make a good source for future priests.

Selection bias on the admissions team.

New Haven was a hippy haven during the ‘70s. Now, it’s everywhere, at the top of nearly all of the administrations of every kind.

Sounds like the way to get into Yale is to “identify” as LGBQTWXYZ.

[bigbob]

It’s cool to be queer

[Gay State Conservative]

I wonder how many genders are represented in Yale's Freshman class.My guess is at least thirty.

[Socon-Econ]

I’m sure this has more to do with their admissions process than anything.

Also, any conservative freshman would get the shaft if he self-identified.
Safer to go LGBT until he graduates.

I don’t think this any different from 10 years ago.

Boys whose father figure is a WOMAN become effeminate homos.

Girls whose father figure is a WOMAN become man-hating lesbians.

End of story.

When mankind defies God's plan for the family, the punishment is confused LGBTQ offspring!!

THE WHEELS HAVE COME OFF THE WAGON!!!

Romans 1

25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

I sometimes talk to some old friends and young relatives in the heartland. Young people are using that identity to get jobs there. Most bosses are afraid of getting in their way for anything and are letting them do as they wish. It's exactly like the new Republican fear of displaying any political bumper stickers or decals on vehicles.

The result is the freak show that we've been seeing in lower management. It's obvious.

Oh, well, maybe after another Xanax, vaped ganja, opioid or whatever their drugs of choice, they'll have that last sweet desert, spout pressure leaks and explode in dazzling arrays of tat colors and stench pretty soon. Let the those who hired them clean up the messes.

It’s a very expensive, uneducational freak show.

Well, claiming LGBTQ status protects you and gives you automatic victimhood, whereas claiming to be a conservative or Christian puts a target on your back. For many, the choice is easy.

No need for co-ed dorms for this crew to have their fun!

[originalbuckeye]

It’s trendy and becoming the way to get ahead......how sad and destructive for our country.

[Graybeard58]

I just call them sick bastards and move along and avoid them if possible. If and when it wants to get in my face, I might have to choot it.

[I want the USA back]

They don’t know what they are. They claim to be one of those things because they get added recognition, plus they move up the victim ladder and can accuse millions of other people of “hate.”

No one is LGBT. If you’re L, you’re not G. If you’re G, you’re n... etc.

If magically returning now for my undergrad...my conservatism and heterosexuality would likely be kept low-key.
Were I some 22 y.o. fresh graduate seeking a first job, pretty much everything about my life would be unknown.

“Queer” is code for “white kid from the suburbs who wants to be trendy.”

[TexasM1A]

That place sounds pretty messed up.
