Sources

Verification note. Question wording and United States country-row percentages read directly from the Ipsos report PDF (pages 32 and 34-39) using coordinate-aware text extraction. The report publishes collapsed nets only (strongly/somewhat agree, not sure, strongly/somewhat disagree); the underlying four-point splits are not in this document. Party breaks are not published by country.

Figures below are transcribed from these documents. Where they disagree with the source, the source governs.

Questions asked (6)

General acceptance4-point scalein a trend series
perceived discrimination faced by transgender people

In your opinion, how much discrimination do transgender people face in our society today?

A great deal/fair amount
64%
Not much/not at all
18%
Not sure
18%

Wording notes: report publishes collapsed nets, not the underlying four points

neutral — standard perceived-discrimination scale

Nondiscriminationagree/disagreein a trend series
protection from discrimination in employment, housing and public accommodations

How much do you agree or disagree with the following?

Transgender people should be protected from discrimination in employment, housing, and access to businesses such as restaurants and stores

Agree 72%17% Disagree

Wording notes: agree/disagree format is subject to acquiescence bias | nets only

neutral — policy stated plainly; agree/disagree format is a design weakness rather than a directional tilt

Youth medical careagree/disagreein a trend series
gender-affirming care for transgender teenagers with parental consent

How much do you agree or disagree with the following?

With parental consent, transgender teenagers should be allowed to receive gender-affirming care (e.g., counseling and hormone replacement treatment)

Agree 45%42% Disagree

Wording notes: conditions the item on parental consent, which raises support relative to unconditioned youth-care items | specifies counseling and hormone replacement but not surgery | uses the term 'gender-affirming care' with an in-stem gloss

tilts_affirming — the parental-consent condition and the omission of surgery both make the affirming response easier than in the typical US-fielded youth-medical item, so this number is not comparable to bans-on-minors polling

Bathrooms & facilitiesagree/disagreein a trend series
access to single-sex facilities matching gender identity

How much do you agree or disagree with the following?

Transgender people should be allowed to use single-sex facilities (e.g., public restrooms) that correspond to the gender they identify with

Agree 40%45% Disagree

Wording notes: affirming direction is the agree pole, the reverse of the PRRI bathroom item | 'single-sex facilities' framing foregrounds the sex-segregation rationale

neutral — plainly stated access policy; the 'single-sex facilities' phrasing is descriptive of the institution rather than evaluative

Legal documents & IDsagree/disagreein a trend series
non-binary gender marker option on government-issued documents

How much do you agree or disagree with the following?

Government-issued documents such as passports should include an option other than "male" and "female" for people who do not identify as either

Agree 41%43% Disagree

Wording notes: about non-binary markers specifically, not about changing an existing M/F marker

neutral — policy stated plainly with the affected group described in its own terms

Adult medical careagree/disagreein a trend series
insurance coverage of gender transition costs

How much do you agree or disagree with the following?

Health insurance systems should cover the costs of gender transition no differently than the costs of other medical procedures

Agree 37%49% Disagree

Wording notes: parity framing ('no differently than') rather than a mandate framing | does not specify who pays

neutral — parity framing is a fair statement of the actual policy question and does not cue a direction
