According to Gallup, Generation Z is the gayest generation ever. While just 2% of baby boomers currently identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender, and just 7.6% of all adults do the same, an eye-popping 22.3% of Gen Z claim an LGBT identity.
The next highest number is millennials at just 9.8%.

Well, a closer look at the numbers shows that the “B” in LGBT is doing most of the work. Of those in Gen Z who label themselves LGBT, bisexuals make up 70% of that group. And this newfound gayness is not spreading equally among the sexes. Gen Z women are more than twice as likely as Gen Z men to report LGBT identity.
