Millennials the only generation whose majority supports same-sex ‘marriage’
– Support for same-sex "marriage" is split significantly along generational lines, with opposition to marriage redefinition remaining strong among older generations and only millennials mustering majority support, according to a recent poll. A Pew Research Forum this month found that 70 percent of those born after 1981 favor marriage redefinition. No other generation crossed the threshold of 50 percent. Support for preserving marriage tracked largely with age. The second greatest support for marriage redefinition was among Generation X , those born between 1965-1980, with 49 percent. America 's largest population bloc, Baby Boomers , trailed far behind, with only 38 percent in favor of homosexual “ marriages .” Their views are not so different from their parents, the Silent Generation . Less than one-third of those born before 1945 would redefine marriage. Overall, opposition to same-sex “marriage” actually increased since last year ,
