Examples include assessing health and economic disparities in the LGBT community, understanding the prevalence of anti-LGBT discrimination, and considering the economic impact of marriage equality or the provision of domestic partnership benefits to same-sex couples. Understanding the size of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) population is a critical first step to informing a host of public policy and research topics. Increasing numbers of population-based surveys in the United States and across the world include questions designed to measure sexual orientation and gender identity. Adding these questions to more national, state, and local data sources is critical to developing research that enables a better understanding of the understudied LGBT community. The surveys highlighted in this report demonstrate the viability of sexual orientation and gender identity questions on large national population-based surveys. Understanding the size of the LGBT population is a critical first step to informing a host of public policy and research topics.An estimated 19 million Americans (8.2%) report that they have engaged in same-sex sexual behavior and nearly 25.6 million Americans (11%) acknowledge at least some same-sex sexual attraction. Estimates of those who report any lifetime same-sex sexual behavior and any same-sex sexual attraction are substantially higher than estimates of those who identify as LGB.Conversely, gay men comprise substantially more than half of gay and bisexual men in seven of the nine surveys. Bisexuals comprise more than half of the lesbian and bisexual population among women in eight of the nine surveys considered in the brief. Women are substantially more likely than men to identify as bisexual.Among adults who identify as LGB, bisexuals comprise a slight majority (1.8% compared to 1.7% who identify as lesbian or gay).This implies that there are approximately 9 million LGBT Americans, a figure roughly equivalent to the population of New Jersey.An estimated 3.5% of adults in the United States identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual and an estimated 0.3% of adults are transgender.The brief concludes with estimates of the size of the LGBT population in the United States. This research brief discusses challenges associated with collecting better information about the LGBT community and reviews eleven recent US and international surveys that ask sexual orientation or gender identity questions.

Data Interactives Customizable visualizations of our data.LGBT FAQs Find answers to our most frequently asked questions.Blatant queerbaiting with Jorge Javier Vázquez's stint as a tronista, as the long-standing fan request of an homosexual tronista was only fulfilled in a last-ditch effort to get the show's ratings out of the gutter in its dying days, and eventually resulted in the show's cancellation when ratings didn't show any significant improvement.Increasingly desperate attempts to keep the show relevant late in its run, with panelists commenting on other reality shows and enlisting people known for other reality shows as tronistas.It had one of the most toxic fan bases in the history of Spanish television, including social media revolts if the show was pushed off the schedule by breaking news coverage such as the Germanwings Flight 9525 incident.Frequent overuse of swear words by the tronistas and suitors alike, inappropriate for a show that aired at midday.Most of the conflict was born out of petty jealousy attacks, and resulted in almost constant loud arguments on set.Starting halfway through the show's run, the rule that a tronista who met with one of the suitors off camera would be immediately expelled from the show was disregarded on a regular basis for the sake of cheap drama.It probably helped that the show presented them pretty much as prizes the suitors fought over as they watched from their thrones. As potential contestants caught on to the fame the show brought, the tronistas became terrible role models, as most of them (male and female) were entitled, jealous jerks obsessed with looking hot and being the center of attention.
