Last year&#8217;s survey by <a href=\"https:\/\/news.gallup.com\/poll\/389792\/lgbt-identification-ticks-up.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Gallup<\/a> revealed that 7.1% of the US population claim to be gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender, a percentage that has doubled in ten years. Of the 12,000 respondents, 86.3% described themselves as heterosexual, while the remaining 6.6% did not respond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As might be expected, identification with any LGBT+ category is far more pronounced among young people: 21% of those born between 1997 and 2003 fall into this category. In 2012, LGBT+ youth covered 12% of total respondents. An increase that should offset the decline (from 11% to 8%) of older LGBT+, those born before 1946 (over 65 in 2012, over 75 in 2022).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Should this trend within Generation Z,&#8221; meaning those born between 1997 and 2003, &#8220;continue, the percentage of US adults in that generation who say they are LGBT+ will increase further once all members of the generation reach adulthood,&#8221; Gallup says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>&#8220;Fluid,&#8221; in every sense of the word&#8230;.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the <em>magnum sea<\/em> of the LGBT+ universe, those who say they are bisexual (57%) make up the lion&#8217;s share: in fact, they are 4% of the entire US population. Specifically, 21% of LGBT+ persons identify as gay, 14% as lesbian, 10% as transgender, and 4% identify with other categories. All of them do not add up to 2% of the total population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is one piece of information that is of more interest than the others. In Generation Z, the millennials (i.e., those born between 1981 and 1996) and Generation X (those born between 1965 and 1980), people who self-identify as bisexual outnumber other LGBT+ categories, accounting for 57%; however, that&#8217;s still not more than 4% of all US adults. This confirms the fact that the prevailing connotation among those under 40 is to define themselves as &#8220;fluid&#8221;, that is, undefined, which means they fluctuate in every aspect of existence, starting with the sexual one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fifteen percent of Generation Z claim to be bisexual. The figure drops to 6% among millennials and 2% of Generation X. In terms of the sex of respondents, 6% of women self-identify as bisexual compared to 2% of men. Conversely, 2.5% of men identify as gay and 1.9% of women identify as lesbian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On a year-on-year basis, the percentage of US adults self-identifying as LGBT+ has grown faster than in previous years. According to Gallup, this is due to &#8220;increasing legal protections against discrimination.&#8221; If the numbers remain constant, the research institute concludes, within a few years, the number of LGBT+ persons will exceed 10%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-propaganda-is-working\"><strong>Propaganda is working<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Gallup&#8217;s data were commented with obviously self-congratulatory tones in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/commentisfree\/2022\/feb\/23\/finally-the-great-gay-agenda-is-working-twice-as-many-of-us-now-identify-as-lgbtq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">The Guardian<\/a>.
