Brazil is often highlighted for havg one of the hight rat of hate-related homicis agast ALGBTs the world. However, to date, Brazil’s ALGBT populatn has not been vtigated wh a reprentative sample, and basic rmatn such as populatn size or socmographic characteristics are mostly based non-systematic data. We aimed to asss the proportn of asexual, lbian, gay, bisexual, trans and non-bary adults Brazil, their socmographic characteristics, and self-reported vlence rat. In 2018, a sample (n = 6000) of the Brazilian adult populatn answered a face-to-face survey asssg socmographic characteristics, genr inty, sexual orientatn, and self-reported psychologil, physil, verbal, and sexual vlence. Among Brazilian adults, 12.04% are ALGBT: 5.76% asexual, 0.93% lbian, 1.37% gay, 2.12% bisexual, 0.68 trans, and 1.18% non-bary. Compared to heterosexual cisgenr men, most ALGBT dividuals have worse socenomic ditors and higher rat of self-reported psychologil and verbal vlence. All ALGBT groups and heterosexual cisgenr women reported sexual vlence more often than heterosexual cisgenr men. It was reported between 4 up to 25 tim more often by heterosexual cisgenr women and trans dividuals, rpectively. The rat of the other ALGBT groups s among the two.
