Note. All proportions and standard errors (SE) weighted using Generations survey weights; all n’s unweighted. Percentages may not add to 100.0% due to weighting and/or rounding

‘Variable level Bonferroni-corrected p-value’ indicates if distribution of specific variable level (e.g. “cisgender women only”) differs non-significantly (n.s.), or significantly (p<.05), using adjusted Wald tests, incorporating Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons, between:

a

Queer and Lesbian/Gay

b

Queer and Bisexual

c

Queer and Other

d

Lesbian/Gay and Bisexual

e

Lesbian/Gay and Other

f

Bisexual and Other

Variable-level analysis only computed for variables with statistically significant ‘overall p-value,’ which tests overall association (Pearson’s chi2 test) between variable and sexual identity. If overall association is non-significant, variable-level analysis is not computed (hence ‘N/A,’ aka ‘not applicable’)

Gendered attraction patterns are only reported for respondents with any stated attraction; for the purpose of this variable, women (and men) include both cis- and/or transgender people. Attracted to women /attracted to men are only reported for those who stated attraction to people of that gender. Sexual partnering variables follow similar patterns.
