Sorry this can’t be right, 1 in 5 of Gen Z adults? That’s an incredible increase, more than double the average across all generations. Could we actually one day reach 20% LGBTQ identification?
Coming from a world where I stayed in the closet for years because I was terrified about violent repercussions, the number just sounds completely unreal to me.
It sounds like the biggest growth is in bisexual identification, up to 30% of Gen Z women.
My uneducated guess is that older adults with bisexual tendencies had the option of just convincing themselves they were straight, while gay older adults didn’t really have that option.

That number sounds about right based on my own social circles (though for context I’m a millennial myself)
