Lawmakers want to know why there are fewer LGBTQ+ homeowners than straight: 'Concerning disparities'
Twenty U.S. representatives are demanding to know about the homeownership "disparities" between LGBTQ+ people and their straight, cisgender peers.
You're viewing a single thread.
I'd be interested if they took samples of home ownership across LGBTQ+ and cis populations in geographies with high acceptance of LGBTQ+ populations. Do we see parity in this case? Could it be that geographies that contain accepting societies all have low home ownership?
As in, could places where higher home ownership exist not overlap with LGBTQ+ acceptance?
Give me one example of an "accepting society"
Gay marriage may be legal, but nowhere in this world exists true equality. So what I'm saying is, it'd be impossible to reliably gather research comparing more accepting and less accepting places, because the overwhelmingly conservative climate still exists regardless of minor differences in public sentiment.
I imagine a gay couple living in the Castro District in San Fransisco experiences a different level acceptance than if that same couple were living in Birmingham Alabama.
Different, yeah.
