Conservatives and pro-family advocates should be encouraged by a Rasmussen poll released late last week. When it comes to the left’s gender insanity that is on full display during “Pride Month,” the overwhelming majority of the American people agree with us — not the left and its woke corporate and media allies.

Here are the key findings from the poll.

Sixty percent of Americans OPPOSE school officials counseling students on sexual orientation and identity without parental consent. Just 26% think schools should secretly discuss these issues with children. The rest are undecided.

In a deeply divided America, 60%-to-26% is about as close to consensus as you will get, and Joe Biden is among that 26% fringe.

It’s even more interesting when you break down responses along party lines. Seventy-five percent of Republicans opposed school officials counseling students about sexual orientation and gender identity, but only 44% of Democrats think schools shouldn’t push gender ideology on kids. (Remember that the next time you’re voting for school board candidates!)

Americans agree with laws protecting children from mutilating transgender surgeries 62%-to-30%. How many other issues on the GOP agenda are 2-to-1 winners?

Rasmussen also found that 71% of Americans agreed with this statement: “There are only two genders, male and female,” while just 23% disagreed. Again, the insane left is pandering to an extreme fringe.
