Notes
- 1.
To date, though the US Census does not include a question about sexual orientation or identity, some scholars have used data related to household composition in order to identify same-sex couple households. This was primarily done by matching the sex of the “head of household” with the sex of the only other household member in one family unit. However, this technique has not been able to identify lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans* people who are single.
