A JAMA survey is claiming that one in four U.S. adolescents now identify as non-heterosexual

An analysis of a survey published by the journal JAMA Pediatrics is claiming that one in four U.S. adolescents in grades 9 through 12 self-identify as non-heterosexual.  JAMA is a weekly peer-reviewed medical journal that is published by the American Medical Association.   Note though that JAMA is an Establishment organization that advocates for “woke” ideologies of all types (link), so it is possible that the results of their study have been somehow biased to achieve a desired outcome.


The report claims the following changes have occurred between 2019 and 2021:


— Youths who identify as heterosexual have decreased from 84.5% to 74.4%.

— Youths who identify as gay or lesbian rose from 2.5% to 3%.

— Youths who identify as bisexual rose from 8.6% to 12%.

— Youths who selected “not sure” rose from 4.4% to 5.1%.

— Females stating they were “not sure” rose from 5.6% to 8%.

— Males stating they were “not sure” fell from 3.3% to 2.3%.


The survey included 12,847 respondents in 2019, and 16,357 respondents in 2021, both with roughly equal numbers of male and female respondents.

The survey is conducted every other year by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (which is also controlled by the political Establishment), where questions about sexual identity have started to be asked in 2015.



The following images are from this Tweet showing the results of a Gallup poll about sexual orientation:

7.2% of Americans overall are claimed to identify as “LGBT.”

19.7% of Generation Z students are claimed to identify as “LGBT.”

A large shift toward bisexuality is claimed to be occurring.
