Everywhere varies a ton, and there are bigots and supporters everywhere. Its important to consider regions and citites.
As an American, I feel safer in the capital city of the state that is likely to become the next addition to Erin’s “do not travel list” than I do in rural areas of the safest states. A map of states or countries like the one dandelion posted in this thread will fill an entire nation a single shade. That’s an oversimplification.
Canada got an A grade, but alberta if rated alone would be no higher than a D in my guess.
Make sure you’re moving to a safe city in a safe country. National elections don’t change your neighbors.
yes, this exactly - way too many LGBT+ folks look at a map (whether country, or by state) and think it’s safe wherever - and while the laws in a state or country may be better (and this may translate to better rights in rural areas too), in general cities will be safer than rural areas.
+1 for moving to a safe city in a safe country
I think there was someone who moved to east Washington state, which is a very right-wing part of the country; Washington state is very progressive, but it’s all west of the mountains along the coast - living is Seattle is a radically different experience than living in Spokane.
Also depends on how bad your state is, I wouldn’t move to a state that makes having a driver’s license with your new marker a crime like Florida or other states. I would move to a state with good protections near or in a populated city.
