OK to be gay? Regional acceptance of same-sex relations
Middle Atlantic
In the Middle Atlantic - New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania - 39.3 percent of adults say homosexual relations are "always wrong."
One significant event in this region is the story of Tyler Clementi, an 18-year-old Rutgers University student who killed himself in 2010 after his gay encounters were broadcast over the Internet.
