  • More Shopping: Same-sex households spend over $2K more per year on discretionary items than in straight households. ComScore.

  • Media: 74% of queer people said they read LGBTIQ+ publications in print or online on a regular basis. LGBT Network Research.

Marketers are discovering that LGBTIQ+ consumers are resilient and focused — one of the really bright spots in the economy. In research we conducted, we saw that same-sex couples and gay men, in particular, are less likely than others to cut back on their discretionary spending. Same-sex households often are healthy indicators of smart shopping and spending.
