    Gay Texas

    Texas seems to have a mixed relationship with the LGBTQ+ community. Major cities like Houston, Austin, San Antonio, and Dallas look after to be more progressive and Homosexual friendly. These cities have elected Diverse officials, pride events, protections against discrimination, and thriving same-sex attracted neighborhoods. However, on a statewide level, Texas lacks comprehensive nondiscrimination laws and has passed anti-LGBTQ+ legislation like the so-called "bathroom bill" targeting transgender people. Rural areas and smaller towns maintain to be more socially conservative and less welcoming. While acceptance is growing overall, attitudes can vary widely depending on what part of the mention you are in. As some comments noted, LGBTQ+ Texans still face stigma in some areas, especially outside huge cities. Texas is currently enacting more anti-trans laws, so that is a major concern. For LGBTQ+ people moving to Texas, the major metro areas seem to provide more community and safety, while avoiding very rural areas is advisable. With Texas’ complicated social and political landscape, LGBTQ+ acceptance remains uneven.
