I think the article is insinuating that TQ+ are those living out a lifestyle choice calling themselves ace demi heteroromantic queer nonbinaries, all of which are 'lifestyle labels'. It says 3/4 are searching for meaning, and kind of implies that 1/4 aren't and are probably actual LGB people living normal gay lives.

All that said I don't believe nearly 1/3 millennials are buying into this crap. I'm assuming that's just bad polling data. A lot of these TQ people are terminally online and skew any kind of online poll.

Replied to TumbleweedFireflies about this already, but-- I hope that was the insinuation, but since the wording is ambiguous, it also could've as easily meant "all LGBTQ is a lifestyle."

Agreed, it seems a little ridiculous to me. At a left-leaning university-- now that, I could definitely believe numbers as high as this.
