Americans' support for same-sex marriage has hit a new high, according to a Gallup poll released Monday.
Sixty-four percent of adults surveyed said same-sex marriages should be legal, a 3 percent increase since last year and the most support for gay marriage since Gallup began tracking the issue in 1996, when just 27 percent backed legalizing gay marriage.

A very positive sign of our changing views as a culture. The entertainment industry, media, the internet and events like pride marches etc and much to do with this shift.
