Two RGV cities in the top 10 and there are those that still wonder about the red pilling of the valley.

Was going to say the same.
Apparently the Hispanic community isn't down with the alphabets like the left wants and encourages

What segments Pasadena from the rest of the Houston metro area, or even just Deer Park next door?

---

Nothing. It's all a giant concrete swamp with good restaurants and sweaty people that can't f'n drive.

---

Pretty much. If you look on a map, Pasadena has annexed several long tentacles of land ranging from the Ship Channel down to Clear Lake including the UH-Clear Lake campus. Many years ago, one Pasadena legislator proposed renaming the school to UH-Clear Lake at Pasadena. Anyone see a problem with that?

So you're saying every town in between both, which covers a lot of miles and many cities are down with the LGBTQXYZ?

"According to reports, the Texas Rangers are the lone MLB organization that refuses to host a "Pride Night."

They'd rather just play baseball."

Circa 1999 A&M was ranked as the 3rd least gay friendly college in 'Merica. I think I still have the headline from The Batt.

The list was for cities and not towns.
Proportionally compared to the amount of cities in Texas having 2 on the border is something of significance

Notice they only listed 1 city in Mississippi and it's ranked #138 with a score of 22. There's another large group who isn't down with the rainbow program either.

Also, if San Francisco is #1, how come it only got a score of 72?
Shouldn't that be the baseline 100 point city?

I remember that BATT article. A&M was 3rd out of ten institutions. The other 9 were all biblical private institutions. I think Brazos Valley was the2nd most conservative area in the US during the same time.

They ain't doing anything right lol

Simply existing

Surprising that Abilene isn't on that list. Things really are going to hell now that ACU coeds are allowed to wear shorts.

Surprised to see Garland, Tx up there, since Garland as an Estate called Rainbow Estates.

And of course you have Monica Park, we all know what happens in that area.

Ok I'll see myself out now.

Gross. I think I'd rather live with the gays

I don't think so. The current onslaught of sexual rot and family-destroying virtue-signaling brings too mind Chesterton:

When I see the Family sinking in these swamps of amorphous amorous futility, I feel inclined to say, "Give me the Communists." Better Bolshevist battles and the Brave New World than the ancient house of man rotted away silently by such worms of secret sensuality and individual appetite. "The coward does it with a kiss; the brave man with a sword."

What makes a city more or less LGBG friendly?

Lot's of large Hispanic communities in that list... Makes me think LBGT+++ people are racist.

Y'all may take this for granted, but don't.

We live in a very conservative part of Colorado. And still, we are still encroached by the freak show libs always pushing their agendas here. Friends of ours that we thought were strong in faith have broken fully. And I mean destroyed their families. They gave into temptation. And I get it. It's nothing new. Bad stuff and vices have always existed. But the scale and frequency of perversion seems to be so much higher now…it's like a constant onslaught every day.

Just sickening. And it makes me ponder rolling back to much more old-fashioned communities.

Thanks for the laugh I don't think heard the term "bull dyke" in years. Lol

There is no such thing as an "anti-Trans" bill.

Texas has some work to do after a recent study showed six cities were named among the least LGBTQ+ friendly. https://t.co/uVQrvyHyRO

— FOX26Houston (@FOX26Houston) June 13, 2023

My old hometown is #1 in Texas, #3 in the U.S.

---

Only six!!!! Texas does have a lot of work to do to increase that number.

Nothing to add, other than there was a lot of good stuff in this thread, well done TA.

---

As a native of the area, my assumption is simply that Deer Park and La Porte lack the population to be in the list of 200 cities that they ranked.

City limits in Greater Houston are arbitrary AF.

God bless Texas.

This is terrible. LGBTs and their leftist allies should start leaving the state in droves in order to protest.

As late as 2005, when the state DOMA was put up for a vote, Brazos County supported it by a good margin. In fact, Travis County (Austin) was the only county in Texas where the majority sided with the gays. Typical t-sips.

On the side of one of those lawncare articles:


Recent Studies

• 2023's Best Cities for Single Dads to Live
• 2023's Best Cities for Naked Biking
• 2023's Best Hiking Cities in the U.S.
• 2023's Best Biking Cities in the U.S.
• 2023's Best California Wine Counties
• 2023's Best States for Urban Treasure Hunters

Read the details of some of their criteria. Pure illogical crap. Take Hiking for example. Boise ranked Top 10 with a top 25 climate despite very cold winters vs Huntsville with excellent trails but a climate ranking of 196 despite being hot only 2 months of the year. Know both cities well, Huntsville offers far more weather related opportunities.

Lots of examples to pick from. And remember this is a lawn care company thats an "expert on everything". They are a joke. Ever wonder why media outlet picks trash sites like this as a "source"

Imagine loving your city because it embraces hate.

Agree, so much work to do.

We should have at least a dozen cities in that list and B/CS needs to aim for the top

Just amazing they've turned people's sexual preference into one of the biggest victim groups on par with minorities. There's nothing the left loves more than creating victims/oppressors so they can swoop in with more control.

I grew up in Garland. It wasn't bad in the 70's and 80's but my old neighborhood looks a bit rough today.
