RESULTS IN NUMBERS:

(assuming nobody hit the wrong option, which is not the case btw)

1.241 people participated in this poll.

the first option was with 86,9% by far the most voted on, which means that 1.078 LGBTQIA+ people have at least once in their life felt like their sexuality and/or gender was not accepted.

109 LGBTQIA+ people voted NO, they have never felt like their sexuality and/or gender was not accepted. (8,8%).
15 cishet* people voted YES, they have felt like their sexuality and/or gender was not accepted. (1,2%).
and 39 cishet* people voted NO, they have never felt like their sexuality and/or gender was not accepted. (3,1%).

now. this poll mainly represents people of the LGBTQIA+ community. what if we compare them to the cishet* people?

let's devide cishet* and LGBTQIA+ people and look at the percentages then.

the percentages of solely LGBTQIA+ people are:

90,8% voted YES, they have felt like their sexuality and/or gender was not accepted.
9,2% voted NO, they have never felt like their sexuality and/or gender was not accepted.

the percentages of solely cishet* people are:

27,8% voted YES, they have felt like their sexuality and/or gender was not accepted.
72,2% voted NO, they have never felt like their sexuality and/or gender was not accepted.
the point i am trying to make is:

people of the LGBTQIA+ community are not only at a significantly higher risk but oftentimes truly are not accepted because of their sexuality and/or gender.

and - to the cishet* people out there who voted for "YES" - while i am very sorry you ever felt this way, please consider why that was. it is likely that this can be led back to the queerphobia (homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, acephobia etc.) people of the LGBTQIA+ community had to face in the first place. please remember that

โœจempowering a minority does not weaken a majorityโœจ

--------

*cishet = cisgender (your gender aligns with the sex you were assigned with at birth) and heterosexual (you are attracted to exclusively the opposite sex). but here i mean everyone who is NOT part of the LGBTQIA+ community in any way.

reading all the tags is breaking my little queer heart. i wish everyone out there who doesn't feel seen or validated a lot of support and i hope they'll have better happier experiences they can put above the bad ones. โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉนโค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉนโค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน
