More freshmen at both Harvard and Yale identify as LGBTQ than as politically conservative, according to surveys published by the universities’ student newspapers.

According to Yale Daily News’ “Class of 2022: By the Numbers,” approximately 23 percent of the freshman class identify somewhere along the LGBTQ spectrum. This is up from 21 percent last year and 15 percent in 2016, according to the paper.

At Harvard, a similar student survey in the Harvard Crimson found that more than 18 percent of the freshman class identify as something other than straight. This number has increased every year since 2014, when less than 10 percent of that year’s freshman class identified as nonheterosexual.

Both surveys asked students a wide variety of questions, ranging from their religious affiliation to their birth order. When it comes to political orientation, both Ivy League universities leaned heavily to the left.

Nearly three-quarters of Yale freshmen described themselves as “somewhat” or “very liberal,” while just 10 percent identified as “somewhat” or “very conservative.” The numbers at Harvard were similar, with approximately 64 percent of freshmen respondents identifying as liberal and 12 percent as conservative.

Reward one lavishly, relentlessly punish the other, results like these should be no surprise.

More reason to hire the bright kid down the block rather than most Ivy League pod creatures.

I guess that means there are a lot more P's and Q's flying around the Yale dorms than during Kavanaugh's days?

The silver lining is they'll eventually 'breed' themselves out of existence.

Why not? Being “queer” gets you a lot more goodies these days, especially at leftist cesspools.

”...approximately 23 percent of the freshman class identify somewhere along the LGBTQ spectrum. This is up from 21 percent last year and 15 percent in 2016, according to the paper.”

Quite the dramatic trend for something that is alleged to be genetically-determined. Maybe there are some stray gamma rays or something changing the DNA of college-aged kids. Or, and I know this is crazy, maybe the LGBTQ phenomenon is a voluntary behavior, and constantly promoting it everywhere has made it “hip” and trendy.

Naaaa, that couldn’t be it.

Poor things can’t look down to see if they have a sticky out thing or not. They need to stay home an extra year or two to grow up.

They must be so proud. I guess diversity means you hate America and conservatives.

We need to break the Ivy League stranglehold on our government.

This is not a surprise.
