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.
The average estimates were that 21% of men are gay and 22% of women are lesbians. In fact, roughly a quarter of the public thinks more than 25% of men and 25% of women are homosexual. It should be pointed out, too, that many Americans (at least one in six) could not give an estimate.he 2000 U.S. Census Bureau found that homosexual couples constitute less than 1% of American households. The Family Research Report says around 2-3% of men, and 2% of women, are homosexual or bisexual.. The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force estimates three to eight percent of both sexes.
