I remember that, back in the day, freaked out conservatives vastly overestimated the number of queer people in the US population, but they may have been on to something. In any case, according to a new poll from Gallup, "LGBT Identification in U.S. Ticks Up to 7.1%." "Ticks" seems the wrong word, though! Because of the dramatically different experiences of Gen Z, 7.1% is twice the rate found when Gallup first started this polling just ten years ago. Something's happening...!
