I come up with the best ideas only when I’m extremely sleep deprived

I will share the final results in a few days, probably on Friday

    This doesn’t make any sense, you guys have to vote for gender AND for orientation. The percentage of cis to non cis doesn’t make any sense when it’s mixed into the orientation block of straight, queer etc. Should have been 2 polls

        Can you be gay and cis? Yes. But your chart will show my vote for both as two people and Split me in half. The chart mashes together two different topics: gender identity and sexual orientation. Some people will only vote for one of the two, some will vote for both, since we all fall into a category in both of them. The chart shows every vote, without differentiation between the two and between what a single person has voted.

        You can put 2 questions in one poll: both required but with “prefer not to answer” as an option:

        1. What is your gender identity?
          • Cis (non-trans)
          • Trans
          • Non-binary / Genderfluid / Agender / Questioning / etc.
          • Closeted
          • Prefer not to answer
        2. What is your sexuality?
          • Straight
          • Lesbian / Gay / Bisexual / Ace / Queer / Questioning etc.
          • Closeted
          • Prefer not to answer

        Any objections? Is this confusing/non-inclusive?

        Edit: as with any poll involving these topics, you never know if you’ve missed any options (even if “etc.” is available) so it’s best to get a sample of the LGBT+ community & general population and ask them if they have objections.

      Gonna be honest, didn’t realize “straight” wasn’t a subset of “cis” and needed to also be specified.

        Cis simply means you identify with your gender assigned at birth; it doesn’t really impact your sexuality. For example, you could be a cis gay man, which is not straight.
