The majority of the UK public hold positive views of the LGBTQ+ community, a ground-breaking study has found. Of the 2,000 adults surveyed, one in three said they actively respect lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people, with one in five even expressing admiration.

People were more likely to say they respected lesbian and gay people (38% and 37%, respectively) than bi or trans people (32% and 31%, respectively).

Admiration for LGBTQ+ people varied slightly, with 21% saying they feel this for trans people, 19% saying the same for both lesbian and gay people, and 16% saying it for bi people.

Younger people and women were more likely to be pro-LGBTQ+ than men or their older counterparts. Women were almost eight times more likely to actively respect trans people (35%) than they were to fear them (4%).
