I was talking about the T (since the question was how come someone doesn&#x27;t get that sex != gender). The LGB part is a lot more, some estimates are even around 10%. The &quot;gender issue&quot; is almost 2 orders of magnitude smaller than the sexual orientation issue.<p>So that&#x27;s the explanation why most people don&#x27;t &quot;get&quot; or even think about the distinction, but they know about gays and lesbians.
