About the Data
The data reported here come from a population-based national dataset of LGBTQ adults in the U.S. derived from the Generations and TransPop studies.
The Generations study was a national probability sample of cisgender sexual minority (LGBQ) individuals, including nonbinary people who reported that their gender is the same as their sex assigned at birth.
The TransPop study was a study of trans gender adults, regardless of sexual orientation, defined as individuals who stated that their current gender identity (e.g.,man, woman, transgender, or nonbinary) was different from the sex assigned to them at birth (male, female). Both studies recruited their samples between 2016 and 2018.
