More than half of Hungarians are in favour of repealing recent laws restricting the rights of LGBTQ people, according to a fresh survey carried out by pollster Medián.
Anti-LGBTQ measures should be withdrawn, people say
According to the phone survey commissioned by the Háttér Társaság and conducted between 27 April and 2 May with 1,000 participants, fully 57 percent of Hungarians support repealing discriminatory measures against LGBTQ people.
While most respondents were aware of the former Fidesz government’s restrictive measures, 51 percent had not heard of last year’s repeal of the explicit ban on discrimination based on gender identity, with only 14 percent familiar with the details, Medián said in a report on Facebook.
Fully 86 percent of respondents have at least heard of restrictions on adoption by unmarried couples, 81 percent knew about bans on minors accessing LGBTQ content, and 67 percent about bans on LGBTQ-themed assemblies and restrictions on legal name and gender changes for transgender people.
Vast majority of the Hungarians support same-sex marriage, adoption rights
Support for repeal varies sharply by party preference, Medián found. Fully 79 percent of Tisza Party voters back scrapping the laws, while only 8 percent of Fidesz voters agree, the pollster said, adding that 32 percent of them would introduce further restrictions.
What’s next? Multiple zebras owned by Hungary’s wealthiest man and Orbán ally, Lőrinc Mészáros, have died
The survey also found 68 percent support same-sex marriage and adoption rights, and 71 percent back access to assisted reproduction for same-sex couples.
Altogether 79 percent of respondents said the state should work to combat discrimination against LGBTQ people, Medián’s report concluded.

What a joke! A 1000 people don’t represent the Hungarians. Nice liberal left propaganda piece!
As someone who worked a long time ago as a public opinion research analyst for a major Canadian company I can tell you the common polling standard has been 1028 respondents that was found to be statistically accurate plus or minus 3.1 percentage points 19 times out 20. It’s not propaganda. Public opinion research companies will get samples randomly from every district.
The polls, Dear Larry, have been used in my country to lead public opinion – NOT reflect it.
Which country is that Dear Liar? You claimed to be American and then impied that you are a Russian who lied about who he was while posting for months. No one who lies about their identity deserves the time of day. NO ONE TRUSTS A LIAR. The shit polls in Russia and what were conducted in Hungary were likely designed to lead opinion by designing questions that are not neutral in nature. Example would a Fidesz type referendum question like “World War III will occur and kill us all if Hungary gives assistance to Ukraine. Do you support assistance to Ukraine? Choose “yes” or “no”. These are not polls. They are shit Russian propaganda machines that you can shove up your ass.
Yes, Dear Geza – and you can be sure those ‘1,000’ polled were in Tisza heavy districts in sin city – Budapest.
The tried and tested technique of self-created outcomes. That kind of poll has destroyed all of Western Europe.
No, it’s just your hatred coming out…it’s not a change in public opinion it’s now people feel free to express their opinion.
Yes, absolutely, Dear Thomas.
We are ruled by an evolved guile, it so brilliantly diabolical that it has a demonstrated power to neuter entire nations.
Sad, very sad.
Says the guy with the pro-slavery flag
Hungary is moving forward. Cry us a river
“A new poll shows a shift in Hungarians’ views”
No, it doesn’t, and you know it.
Of course, Dear Michael – Hungary is not suddenly a libertine society.
However, to The Western Elite, those who want to completely control Hungary, forever, they know that emphasizing sexual perversion, weakening Christianity, and adding lots of non-Whites is the proven tool to conquer, without ever firing a shot.
Here is a Fidesz minded individual! Little education, poor thinking skills, lack or reality of the world. Bye Felicia BYE!
Good point(s) Mouton
Cry us a river
A poll of 1,000 people can be highly reliable for representing an entire nation. A random sample of 1,000 people typically yields a margin of error of roughly 3 % at a 95% confidence level.
Good to see that majority of Hungarians do no tolerate discrimination of LGBTQ minorities.
Hilarious bullshit.
yes, and next to being hilarious bullshit as you said, I also wonder about the percentage of sexually transmitted infections like monkey pox, HIV -AIDS and other transmittable infectious diseases! it should be mandatory to learn about it in schools, so young people especially have the knowledge
They do not want you to know, Dear Anna, that in my country, the average lifespan of a homosexual male is 39 – half of what the lifespan is for heterosexual males.
Homesexual males, in my country, suffer from a blithering array of strange cancers.
In what country do you live in Iran; where they just kill you for being gay. Fidesz has poisoned your mind…because you’re spewing some misinformation. Get some facts and education before you start spitting hate.
Yes, Anna, you are absolutely right about this: Sexual education should be a mandatory subject in schools for teens. And it is in modern western societies – only where religious conservatives have ruled, like in Hungary, proper sexual education is nonexistent.
“Comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) aims to improve knowledge and understanding, and to correct misconceptions by providing young people with age-appropriate, scientifically accurate, and culturally relevant information about their bodies, health, relationships and rights. ”

Why fill their heads with this liberal bs? They’re still underage.
The Fidesz government practiced the politics of hate. Hate for the EU, hate for Ukraine, hate for the “dollar left” (there’s a Kremlin created phrase) and hate for the LGBTQ community. Hungarians are sick and tired of corrupt politicians pushing hate. Let people live in peace.
Let’s put the LGBT community to fight in Ukraine’s war, along with the real soldiers, to show the victory of love over the “hate”.
If you want to talk about sending people to the front why not send you?
so Orban’s government would not bend to EU mandates; so the people are penalized and sanctioned until capitulation is achieved. the eventual pressure destroys confidence it the system which leads to reform that favors EU norms (but that will eventually destroy europe)…
sounds about right……

The pleasures of sex — homosex, heterosex, younameitsex — are notoriously fleeting, ridiculous in performance, and smelly. They also often are damnably expensive.
(They are certainly not sought primarily for purposes of reproduction, whatever Géza H, Michael S, FZ, and Anna M., among other Karens, might like to claim.)
Géza, Michael, FZ, Anna — the only prescriptive advice to be entertained regarding sex has nothing to do with arbitrary pâtisserie disguised as “morality”. It is : Have towels nearby, and, if possible, shower both before and after.
May all your copulations spark joy !
Alex !- regardless of your superiority complex, children should be educated at least in the school system about general sexual behavior and consequences !!!!!
