All of that said, while there is no proof that supporting gender equality is harmful to Democrats by itself, it is possible that the issue is pumped up by right-wing media and candidates to make people think Democrats prioritize the issue like crazy.

And indeed, a November 2024 study by More in Common found that while only 9 percent of Democratic respondents listed LGBT or transgender policies as a top-three issue for them, the larger public sample believed that trans rights were Democrats' second-highest priority. While the cost of living was far and away the top issue for Democratic voters at 40 percent, only 19 percent of the public said that it was.
