Missing percentage points to 100 percent due to answer options "depends on situation", "not a moral issue" and "no opinion", which are not shown here.

The source does not provide exact numbers of respondents.
Data for years prior to 2020 taken from previous publications.

The source posed the question as follows: "Next, I'm going to read you a list of issues. Regardless of whether or not you think it should be legal, for each one, please tell me whether you personally believe that in general it is morally acceptable or morally wrong. How about - Gay or Lesbian Relations?" with slightly differing wording from 2001 to 2004 ("homosexual behavior") and from 2006 to 2008 ("homosexual relations").
