18% of LGBTQ+ adults have never come out — Here’s why
The majority of LGBTQ+ adults figured out their sexuality or gender identity when they were young, according to a new report from Gallup, in which 48 percent of respondents said they knew by the age of 14 and 72 percent came to the realization by the age of 18, with the median age being 14.
Most LGBTQ+ adults reported coming out to their friends and family by age 22 (57 percent), with the vast majority coming out before turning 30 (71 percent). However, a significant portion said they have never come out to anyone (18 percent), including a small portion of gay or lesbian Americans (5 percent), and nearly one in four bisexual adults (23 percent).
