21. Right wing men tend to be misogynists.

Adding "gay" wouldn't change that equation at all.

I'm not at all surprised by the existence of Log Cabin Republicans. If the Republican Party would stop attacking gay people's rights, lots of LGBTQ people would vote Republican. Probably about the same proportion as among straight people.
