Las Últimas Cifras De Las Encuestas Dicen Que EE. UU. Es Más LGBTQ+ Y Bi
Latest Poll Numbers Say USA Is More LGBTQ+ And Bi
Tengo curiosidad por saber si a alguien más le sorprenden estas estadísticas
Estaba leyendo esta encuesta de estadounidenses LGBTQ+ y contiene algunas cifras muy sorprendentes (al menos para mí)
Para empezar, los bisexuales, con quienes me identifico, constituyen el 4% de la población general. Eso significa que 1 de cada 25 estadounidenses es bisexual.
Las sorpresas no terminaron ahí. También conformamos el 57% del público que se identifica como LGBTQ+.
Eso es más que el 21% de homosexuales,… leer más
I’m curious if anyone else is surprised by these statistics
I was reading this survey of LGBTQ+ Americans and there are some very surprising (at least to me) numbers in it
For starters bisexuals, who I identify as, make up 4% of the overall population. That means 1 in 25 Americans is Bi.
The surprises didn’t end there. We also make up 57% of the public that identifies as LGBTQ+.
That’s more than Gay 21%, lesbians 14%, transgendered 10% and other 4% percentages COMBINED.

Hi @Un miembro de myHIVteam,
Yes it does match up with the kinsey scale. I've always believed bisexual were being undercounted.
By the way here is a previous survey from 2021 that shows a majority of lgbtq+ are bi.

It should be noted that the majority of bisexuals are women but I'm guessing that has time goes on more and more males will identify as bisexual. After all sexual researchers had to invent the label msm (men who have sex with men) because a lot men's sexual behavior did not match up with their actions.
I bet if that was included the percentage would be even higher.
This country's gay population, outside of cities that are large enough to have more than one gay bar, is still very under counted. Being gay or even thought of as gay, is still a very dangerous proposition to be in. Gay people are surrounded by, and raised in, a very anti-gay mind set. The old "self loathing" gay persona is still alive and well. This leads most gays to stay in the closet. It also leads to a large segment to adopt a false bi sexual label, a "well I'm less gay than you" claim that soothes some of the guilty feelings.
