An estimated 9 million Americans -- or nearly 4 percent of the total population -- say they identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender, according to a new report released this week from the Williams Institute, a think-tank devoted to LGBT research at UCLA.
Larry Bye, a senior fellow in public health research at the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago, helped to formulate the California study on LGBT health that Gary Gates used to estimate that 0.3 percent of the population is transgender.he other, done in California in 2003 to look at trends in LGBT tobacco use, found that 0.1 percent of adults in California identified as transgender. Using the surveys to get to the 0.3 percent estimate âtakes a lot of statistical gymnastics,â Gates said.
