Gallup’s latest national polling finds that 9% of U.S. adults identify as LGBTQ+, a figure that has held steady since 2024 but remains more than double the rate recorded in 2012.
More than half of LGBTQ+ adults identify as bisexual, representing about 5% of the entire U.S. adult population. Smaller shares identify as gay (17%), lesbian (16%), or transgender (12%), with an additional 6% choosing identities such as queer or pansexual.
Nearly 23% of adults under 30 identify as LGBTQ+, compared with 10% of those aged 30–49 and 3% or fewer among older groups.

“Brazilian scientists reviewed existing research comparing the body composition and physical fitness of transgender people before and after hormone therapy with that of cisgender people.
Overall, the analysis examined 52 studies involving 6,485 people — including 2,943 transgender women, 2,309 transgender men, 568 cisgender women, and 665 cisgender men — ranging in age from 14 to 41.
The pooled analysis showed that transgender women’s body composition differs from that of both cisgender men and cisgender women. The researchers argued that the findings “do not support theories of inherent athletic advantages” for transgender women who have undergone hormone therapy.”
