8 Million LGBT Adults in U.S. (and other stats)

stats350w“Drawing on information from four recent national and two state-level population-based surveys, the analyses suggest that there are more than 8 million adults in the US who are lesbian, gay, or bisexual, comprising 3.5% of the adult population. In total, the study suggests that approximately 9 million Americans – roughly the population of New Jersey – identify as LGBT.”

4 million adults who identify as being gay or lesbian, representing 1.7 percent of the 18-and-over population.

1.8 percent of the adult population, or a little more than 4 million Americans, identify as bisexual.

19 million people, or 8.2 percent of the population, have experimented with same-sex behavior.

25.6 million Americans (11%) acknowledge at least some same-sex sexual attraction.

700,000 transgender adults, or 0.3 percent of the population.
