There is not a single state in the U.S. that has not been a part of the larger evolution toward marriage equality support, according to new analysis from the Williams Institute. Yep, even Wyoming! 

Leaders of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus meeting today on Capitol Hill to discuss immigration reform emphasized the need for recognition of same-sex relationships in a comprehensive bill dealing with the matter. Details follow. 

It's written in the Bible (or in the HRC training manual, can't remember which) that "those who support love shall be rewarded" or something. It's a great saying (even if we did just make it up after a lunchtime margarita or three, and it will come to life for the states of Maine, Maryland and Washington when marriage equality goes into effect in the coming months. 

If the desire to see their fellow citizens treated equally doesn't motivate voters and lawmakers in states around the U.S. to support marriage equality, perhaps the influx of revenue that Maryland, Maine, and Washington are about to bring in from the gays will make them a little more amenable to the idea!

The Williams Institute at UCLA has just released their estimates for the minimum generated income same-sex marriage will bring to those three states and it's enough to make any state proudly wave a rainbow flag!

Aside from the appallingly flawed Regnerus study, most same-sex parenting research has found that children raised by gay and lesbian couples compared equally to children raised by heterosexual couples. But a new study out of UCLA's Williams Institute is about to raise the gay game. 

In a new study by David M. Barnes, a doctoral candidate at Columbia University and Ilan H. Meyer, PhD, Senior Scholar for Public Policy at the Williams Institute, data reportedly shows Latino and black lesbian, gay and bisexual (LGB) men and women are more religious than White LGBs. But the researchers also say that this finding has a correlation between higher incidences of internalized homophobia within gay communities of color.

An explanation after the jump.

A new study out from the Williams Institute debunks that resoundingly flawed study about same-sex parenting released last week that garnered too much mainstream attention. Details follow.

Separating the LGBT acronym in its analysis of FBI crime statistics for the first time has given the Williams Institute and the gay community a stark look at how gay men are disproportionately victimized by physically violent hate crimes.

Newly analyzed data from the 2010 census released today by UCLA Williams Institute finds that gay couples are more likely to be interracial than opposite-sex pairs. Details follow.  

Reports on the rising trend in gay adoptions have been growing in recent memory, but now we have hard numbers that show a massive increase. Gets the facts after the jump!

Earlier this week we were totally not surprised to learn that Provincetown had dethroned San Francisco as the gayest place in America, and possibly on the planet. However, now that the full list of the gayest cities in the country has hit our inboxes, we see that in the size category of large (our favorite!), San Francisco manages to hold a No. 1 spot like a fading glamour queen unwilling to give up its glory. Follow the jump for more.

With data the Williams Institute has gleaned from the 2012 U.S. Census, we are finally able to gauge which city in America is the gayest. (No, though Foursquare may say we have a mayor, the Instinct office does not count as the gayest city in the country.) So, which American gayborhood wins the tiara?
