This will have been drawn from the work of Erin Reed Though its worth noting her only firm, DO NOT TRAVEL, so far, is florida. Though the rest are of course still dangerous.

Apparently, Utah can be added to this. Though they vote overwhelmingly Republican they are surprisingly supportive of lgbtq rights , at least according to a video I saw yesterday.

I think it was called Why is Utah Weird? I think Bobbybroccoli did it.

Anyone from Utah with a different experience, please correct me so I don't spread any more disinformation.

Edit: Just read down about 30 comments and apparently I was gaslit by a YouTube video. Whoduhthunk?

Yeah no... They have bathroom bills that require you to have appropriate sex change documents. It's one of the spots bathroom gestapo check your papers. Also trans care for youth has been banned and 4 anti trans bills have passed in the 1st quarter of 2024...Utah ain't safe gov'ner.

The video was well researched and overall a very good description of life in salt lake, less so in other counties like st George. As he said in the video 80% of the population resides in "the valley", and he didn't really concern himself with the rest of the state. I also wouldn't choose to live in Provo or Spanish Fork as a queer person despite them being in the valley, but I wouldn't consider them dangerous or actively hide it there.

That would have been from the channel ~~Half as Interesting for anyone... Interested. ~~ Wendover Productions. My bad - Half as Interesting is front he same people, but shorter-form content.

Oh thanks I forget they're technically two separate channels.
