More than 30 percent of respondents say they feel disgusted when they see two people of the same sex who are together or kissing on the street.
Another 22 percent are indifferent. 20% of the respondents consider them to be abnormal.
Asked what they think about the legalization of gay marriage, 65 percent said they were against it. Only five percent of respondents say that LGBT people should have the same rights and that marriages should be legalized.
