It’s unsurprising she’s not a progressive thinker.
"Sexual preference," a term used by Justice Barrett, is offensive and outdated. The term implies sexuality is a choice. It is not. News organizations should not repeat Justice Barrett's words without providing that important context.

Given Thomas and Alito's statements during the Kim Davis case, you know that Barrett wants to come in and team up with them to repeal the previous ruling on lgbt marriage.

We could only be so lucky. Probably not tho. It is very hard to turn back even bad law once embedded in the fabric of society

Judge Barrett proves just 'out of touch' she is with today's America and in so doing proves that the GOP and GOP Senators are equally at fault.

Sincere question: What is the right term? Because I tend to default to sexual preference out of habit.

The correct term is “sexual orientation.” “Sexual preference” implies that the individual can choose which genders they are or not attracted to. This is an important distinction when it comes to civil rights.

JFC is this really all you have? I'm gay myself.

No, it’s not all he has. It’s just one of many offensive things she’s said, including that she thinks existing laws are only hypothetical and that as a judge she can’t comment on them.

She also just said “the mentally ill,” which is also offensive.
