Sources

Verification note. A survey of LGBTQ adults, not of trans people specifically, but it breaks out transgender and nonbinary respondents. Note the sample is a 'random sample' drawn from a proprietary opt-in LGBTQ panel - random selection within a nonprobability frame, which is still a nonprobability design. Percentages read from the report PDF.

Gender, gender identity and/or gender expression

Wording notes: uses the term 'micro or macroaggression', which presupposes the respondent accepts that framework

loaded_terms — 'Microaggression' is a contested term of art; embedding it in the stem imports an interpretive frame that some respondents will not share.
