	The source notes that as attitudes change and gay individuals are more welcomed in society, the number of households identifying as same-sex has skyrocketed. From the 2000 Census to the 2005 ACS that is the source of these numbers, the number of same-sex households increased by more than 30%; that is an increase that is likely to have continued since then, meaning these numbers are likely low.

	I'm really glad you wrote "identifying" in the title, because there are so many people stuck in the closet in these conservative states (I have met many of them).
