The Graphic Truth: LGBTQI identification vs. social acceptance

LGBTQI identification vs. social acceptance | Percentage of people polled who say they are mostly or only attracted to members of the same sex vs social acceptance of LGBTI people in G20 countries

Paige Fusco

International polls often gauge what percentage of a given population identify as LGBTQI (lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer, intersex). But the willingness of people to divulge their gender identification and sexual preference is likely influenced by social and cultural attitudes towards LGBTQI people. In Saudi Arabia, for instance, where same-sex sexual acts can be punishable by death, no one is going to be upfront about their sexual proclivities. We look at the percentage of people who identify as LGBTQI in G20 countries, as well as how each of these countries rank on UCLA Law School’s LGBTI Social Acceptance Index.
