Increasg numbers of populatn-based surveys the Uned Stat and across the world clu qutns that allow for an timate of the size of the lbian, gay, bisexual, and transgenr (LGBT) populatn.

HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE GAY? LGBT STATISTICS.

Unrstandg the size of the lbian, gay, bisexual, and transgenr (LGBT) populatn is a cril first step to rmg a host of public policy and rearch topics. In measurg sexual orientatn, lbian, gay, and bisexual dividuals may be intified strictly based on their self-inty or may be possible to nsir same-sex sexual behavr or sexual attractn.

Fdgs shown Figure 1 nsir timat of the percentage of adults who self-intify as lbian, gay, or bisexual across ne surveys nducted wh the past seven years.

While the surveys show a fairly wi variatn the overall percentage of adults who intify as LGB, the proportn who intify as lbian/gay vers bisexual is somewhat more nsistent (see Figure 2).

WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATN IS GAY?

The Natnal Survey of Fay Growth found rults that were sentially the oppose of the UK survey wh only 38% intifyg as lbian or gay pared to 62% intifyg as bisexual. The Natnal Survey of Sexual Health and Behavr and the Atralian Longudal Study of Health and Relatnships both found a majory of rponnts (55% and 59%, rpectively) intifyg as surveys show even greater nsistency differenc between men and women associated wh lbian/gay vers bisexual inty. Wh the surveys, a larger actn of adults report same-sex attractns and behavrs than self-intify as lbian, gay, or bisexual (see Figure 4).

Wh tl like Love, Simon and Paris Is Burng to Tangere and Brokeback Mounta, the list has a wi range of genr and moods, but they all have somethg mon: they all "promently feature gay, lbian, trans, or queer characters; ncern self centrally wh LGBTQ+ them; prent s LGBTQ+ characters a fair and realistic light; and/or be seen as a touchpot the evolutn of queer cema. The reports revolutnized and sndalized the society of the 50s, removg homosexualy om the shadows and makg a relatively mon phenomenon.

So much so, that acrdg to Ksey at least 37% of the male populatn and 20% of the female populatn had had some homosexual experience between adolcence and old age. However, his reports Ksey do not talk about that 10% statistics, bee, although that data is related to that rearcher and his report, the te fact is (at least acrdg to Bce Voeller, scientist and foundg member of the Natnal Gay Task Force, now known as Natnal LGBTQ Task Force) that they “vented” the number by makg an average between men (13%) and women (7%), which acrdg to the reports were mostly homosexual.

So much so that the number, ed aga and aga, has bee an almost accepted fact, turng statistics and homosexual mography to a tool and/or a weapon the polil battlefield between fenrs and opponents of the LGBT people rights. It has served as a rivative also, focg on the thorny pot that after more than a century sce the ncept of homosexualy appeared, has not been possible to answer the qutn of what is or what is meant by homosexualy. Bee, spe havg been untg homosexuals for 70 years, seems that the thors, scholars, specialists, and experts who rry out the studi nnot e to an agreement on the matter.

Bee the studi are not only about knowg how many people are gay, about how many of are homosexual, but about why we are different, and startg om this premise of difference we are assumg and reaffirmg a mol of hegemonic sentialist heterosexualy that remas almost untouchable, even the oh!

But, neverthels, that 10% also forc to exist relatn to a paradigm that has long sce begun to change of the homosexualy paradigmThe ia that a person’s sexualy is dynamic, fluid, changeable, and versatile, that works beyond a fixed, termate, and stable inty that n be fed by a term, is the great secret that has existed sce the tim of Ksey. It is not that there are gay, bi or hetero humans, but that all human begs have the wonrful abily to love and enjoy very different ways pendg on the circumstanc.

Countg homosexuals do nothg but rerce that dichotomy between the normal and the different, and if we really want to move forward we mt abandon that paradigm, which was eful for a time but that is sufficient today, bee human sexualy, of people, of all of , is plastic, and there is where s sentialy many people are gay? In his 1948 book, Sexual Behavr the Human Male, Aled Ksey shocked the world by announcg that 10% of the male populatn is gay. A 1993 Jan Report timated that ne percent of men and five percent of women had more than "ocsnal" homosexual relatnships.

But when Gallup asked Amerins for their bt timate of the Amerin gay and lbian populatn, the rults ma all the figur mentned above look nservative. In Augt 2002*, Gallup asked Amerins, an open-end format, to timate the percentage of Amerin men and the percentage of Amerin women who are homosexual.

Before the 1980s, the few reprentatns of homosexualy popular culture tend to nsist of potentially dangero social viants (thk Norman Bat Psycho). In the last 10 years, the number of Amerins sayg they feel homosexualy should be nsired an acceptable alternative liftyle has gone om 38% (June 1992) to 51% (May 2002).
