LGBTIQ COMMUNITY BY THE NUMBERS

News & Politics, USA, Worldwide

Lies, damned lies and statistics…so the saying goes.  Data helps us to make decisions.  We learn from numbers and for many people they are just fascinating. SO when we heard there was a new book ENTIRELY devoted to statistics on the LGBTIQ community, we knew we just had to find out more.

• Why is it so hard to define the number of LGBT people there are?
• What is the most fascinating fact about the LGBT community that was uncovered?
• What do the numbers about our youth say about the future of the LGBT Q-munity?

To bring the numbers to life, we were joined by Bennett Singer, co-author with his husband David Deschamps of the bookLGBTQ Stats – Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer People by the Numbers (www.lgbtqstats.org)
