Socially progressive
Socially progressive in this context would mean wanting to progress away from the social norms of the, say, 1950s and towards a more gender equal society with plenty of tolerance towards gays, trans, immigrants etc. Having gay friends and dating someone from another ethnic group doesn't automatically make you favour govt intervention.

Libertarian is anti-govt intervention. Socially progressive is for govt intervention. They're kinda opposites.
