Full Survey Results

In 2023, Pew Research Center conducted a global survey about same-sex marriage in 24 countries. For simplicity, Equaldex combines "strongly favor" and "somewhat favor" as "favor," and "somewhat oppose" or "strongly oppose" as "oppose." Those who did not answer are not included. Sample sizes ranged from 959 to 2,611 in each country.

Question: "Do you strongly favor, somewhat favor, somewhat oppose or strongly oppose allowing gays and lesbians to marry legally?"
