Survey Finds a Third of Young Americans Say They’re Not Completely Straight
A new YouGov survey has found 31% of young Americans identify themselves as 100% straight. Respondents were asked to put themselves on a Kinsey scale where 0 is exclusively heterosexual and 6 was completely homosexual.
Overall 78% of Americans say that they are completely heterosexual while 4% say that they are completely homosexual. 16% of American adults say that they fall somewhere in between. In this group the bulk (10%) say that they are more heterosexual than homosexual while 3% put themselves in the middle and another 3% say that they are predominantly homosexual.
Younger Americans are noticeably less likely than their elders to put themselves in a firm category. While 80% of all Americans say that they are completely heterosexual or homosexual only 66% of under-30s say the same. 29% of under-30s put themselves somewhere on the category of bisexuality.
A similar YouGov survey was conducted in Great Britain last week and found almost half of 18-24 year olds don’t identify as exclusively heterosexual.
