LGBT Identification in U.S. Ticks Up to 7.1%
GALLUP ^ | Feb 17 | GALLUP

Posted on 02/18/2022 2:20:49 AM PST by RandFan

The percentage of U.S. adults who self-identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or something other than heterosexual has increased to a new high of 7.1%, which is double the percentage from 2012, when Gallup first measured it.

Gallup asks Americans whether they personally identify as straight or heterosexual, lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender as part of the demographic information it collects on all U.S. telephone surveys. Respondents can also volunteer any other sexual orientation or gender identity they prefer. In addition to the 7.1% of U.S. adults who consider themselves to be an LGBT identity, 86.3% say they are straight or heterosexual, and 6.6% do not offer an opinion. The results are based on aggregated 2021 data, encompassing interviews with more than 12,000 U.S. adults.

Only about 0.5% are actually sex perverts. The other 6.6% are lying @$$h0!es.

This is from industrial-scale grooming and one-way “conversion therapy.”

”Roughly 21% of Generation Z Americans who have reached adulthood -- those born between 1997 and 2003 -- identify as LGBT.”

Most of them consider themselves to be “bisexual” because they think gender is not binary but is a scale. For example, a guy might feel he is only 95-99% male because he has traits he considers feminine, so he identifies as “bisexual” on the scale.

If you asked this....per urban/rural area scenario...it’ll be less than 1-percent in rural areas, and probably near 12-percent in high-urban areas (like SF/Seattle).

I’d also suggest if you go state by state....in some states like Arkansas/Louisiaiana...it might only be 1-percent in the state.

I’m sure people lie and laugh about it. Polls don’t mean much these days. AND they only publish what fits the agenda of the pollster.

In today’s sick society, if a girl cuts her arm up with a knife because she is depressed, she is sick and in need of help (i.e. cutting). If a boy has a doctor cut off his penis because he is depressed, he is strong and considered a hero.

We live in an utterly depraved society.

Realities that won’t go away just because the elites don’t like them: population collapse and demographics crisis, mental health crisis, green energy crisis, the coming food crisis.

What, no option to identify as a practitioner of BESTIALITY!? And what about all those NECROPHILIACS out there?!

Aren't those considered some of the "57 genders" out there? How bigoted!

I’d bet the number who have actually been in a same-sex relationship is much smaller. “Asexuality” seems to be the true sexual identity among young people today, many of whom have never had any physical intimate relationship with anyone.

I agree. But, I think the number is inflated by a significant number of groupies who don't know who they are and are letting advertising influence them.

And then, there's the issue of the accuracy of the poll sample. Who gets asked to answer such a poll? Who bothers to answer?

86.3% are straight...

The remaining 13.7% can’t look between their legs and figure out what sex they are or just demented and twisted.

But how much is organic and how much is propaganda?

LBGTXYZ to Egyptian hyroglyph symbols once they run out of alphabet representation, is communism to its core.

It fails like communism too...like confiscating other people’s money, sooner or later you also run out of other people’s offspring to indoctrinate.
