About this dataset

Context

The dataset tabulates the Gay population over the last 20 plus years. It lists the population for each year, along with the year on year change in population, as well as the change in percentage terms for each year. The dataset can be utilized to understand the population change of Gay across the last two decades. For example, using this dataset, we can identify if the population is declining or increasing. If there is a change, when the population peaked, or if it is still growing and has not reached its peak. We can also compare the trend with the overall trend of United States population over the same period of time.

Key observations

In 2023, the population of Gay was 116, a 4.13% decrease year-by-year from 2022. Previously, in 2022, Gay population was 121, an increase of 5.22% compared to a population of 115 in 2021. Over the last 20 plus years, between 2000 and 2023, population of Gay decreased by 37. In this period, the peak population was 153 in the year 2000. The numbers suggest that the population has already reached its peak and is showing a trend of decline. Source: U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program (PEP).

In 2024, 14.2 percent of Millennials in the United States stated that they identify as LGBTQ+, while in 2012, less than six percent of respondents from the same generation said the same. Members of Generation Z were the most likely to identify as LGBTQ+, at over 23 percent.

In 2023, approximately 85.5 percent of people aged between 16 and 24 in the United Kingdom identified as being heterosexual, the lowest among the provided age groups. In this year, 7.5 percent of people in this age group identified as being Bisexual, compared with just 0.2 percent of people aged 65 or over.

According to a global survey conducted in 2021, three in 10 respondents had at least once spoken out against someone who was being prejudiced against LGBT+ people. In addition, some 13 percent attended a public event in support of LGBT+ people, e.g. a Pride march.

The aim of this survey was to gather data on levels of safe and unsafe sexual practice in a broad cross-sectional sample of gay and homosexually active men. Men were recruited at four gay community events held in Canberra in 2000. The survey included questions on anal intercourse and oral sex, the use of condoms, the nature of sexual relationships, HIV testing and serostatus, aspects of social attachment to the gay community and a range of demographic items including sexual identity, age, education, occupation and ethnicity. Kind of Data: Survey. Time Dimensions: Repeated cross-sectional study. Sample Population: 350 gay and homosexually-active men from Canberra. Sampling Procedures: Participants were recruited at a number of gay community events in Canberra: Fair Day, one gay community site and two gay community events. 407 men were asked to complete the survey and 350 did so. Method of Data Collection: Self-completion.

The evaluation of the results of the HIV / AIDS prevention strategy for men who have sex with men (MSM) is based on a repeated regular survey of this population in German and French-speaking Switzerland (MSM survey, conducted by IUMSP / UEPP). Six surveys (1987, 1990, 1992, 1994, 1997, 2000) make it possible to follow the evolution of the preventive behavior of MSM in Switzerland. These studies all used a questionnaire that was disseminated via the homosexual press and organizations. The main questions have been maintained and new themes have been added based on needs and interests. Between 800 and 1200 questionnaires were returned depending on the year. It is impossible to assess the representativeness of this type of self-selected sample since the general population surveys (EPSS) (see Project no. 613) do not allow to establish a detailed profile of the homosexual population. It is believed, however, that respondents, as newspaper readers or members of gay organizations, belong to the most sexually assertive, most informed and most motivated segment of the gay population in terms of prevention. Young people are poorly represented in this type of survey. It is possible that participation biases lead to overestimation of protection levels without affecting the validity of temporal trends. The main socio-demographic characteristics of the samples changed little between 1987 and 2000 (level of education, place of residence, sexual orientation, community affiliation). However, there has been a fairly pronounced aging of the responding population since 1997. The proportion of respondents under 30 years of age decreased by about half between 1994 and 2000. L'évaluation des résultats de la stratégie de prévention du VIH/sida chez les hommes ayant des relations sexuelles avec d'autres hommes (HSH) repose sur une enquête régulière répétée dans cette population en Suisse alémanique et en Suisse romande (enquête HSH, menée par l'IUMSP/UEPP). Six enquêtes (1987, 1990, 1992, 1994, 1997, 2000) permettent de suivre l'évolution des comportements préventifs des HSHs en Suisse. Ces études ont toutes utilisé un questionnaire qui a été diffusé via la presse identitaire et les organisations homosexuelles. Les questions principales ont été maintenues et de nouveaux thèmes ont été ajoutés en fonction des besoins et intérêts. Entre 800 et 1200 questionnaires ont été retournés selon les années. Il est impossible d'apprécier la représentativité de ce type d'échantillon aauto-sélectionné puisque les enquêtes en population générale (EPSS) (cf. Ident Re 613) ne permettent pas d'établir un profil détaillé de la population homosexuelle. On estime néanmoins que les répondants, en tant que lecteurs de journaux ou membres d'organisations gaies, appartiennent au segment de la population homosexuelle le plus affirmé du point de vue des préférences sexuelles, le mieux informé et le plus motivé en ce qui concerne la prévention. Les jeunes sont peu représentés dans ce type d'enquêtes. Il est possible que des biais de participation conduisent à surestimer les niveaux de protection sans pour autant affecter la validité des tendances temporelles. Les principales caractéristiques socio-démpgraphiques des échantillons se sont peu modifiées entre 1987 et 2000 (niveau d'éducation, lieu d'habitation, orientation sexuelle, affiliation communautaire). On note cependant un vieillissement assez marqué de la population répondante depuis 1997. La proportion de répondants de moins de 30 ans a en effet diminué de moitié environ entre 1994 et 2000.
