This dataset provides Census estimates, the question was voluntary and was only asked of people aged 16 years and over. People were asked “Which of the following best describes your sexual orientation?”. The different sexual orientations that people could choose from included:

  • straight or heterosexual

  • gay or lesbian

  • bisexual

  • other sexual orientation


Sexual orientation is an umbrella term covering sexual identity, attraction, and behaviour. For an individual respondent, these may not be the same. For example, someone in an opposite-sex relationship may also experience same-sex attraction, and vice versa. This means the statistics should be interpreted purely as showing how people responded to the question, rather than being about whom they are attracted to or their actual relationships.

Statistical disclose control would have been applied to the data if it would have been possible to identify an individual.
