A recent report from Gallup reflects an all-time high in the number of Americans who self-identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender. According to the report, the LGBT percentage of the total population has doubled from 3.5% to 7.1% in approximately 10 years.
As one could reasonably expect, LGBT self-identification was more common among young people. For example, about 11% of millennials and 21% of Gen Z identified this way. That’s right, roughly 1 in 5 Zoomers says they are gay or transgender. This is in contrast with only 4% of Gen Xers and 3% of baby boomers.
