April 8, 2011 By Joanne Leave a Comment

Only 1.7  percent of U.S. adults say they’re gay and another 1.8 percent identify as bisexual, according to a new study by the Williams Institute on Sexual Orientation Law and Public Policy at UCLA.

Transgendered adults represent 0.3 percent of the population, estimates  demographer Gary Gates.

About 8.2 percent of adults have engaged in some form of same-sex behavior at least once, the study found.
