Sources

Verification note. Fielded by Impact Research (printed on every toplines page), not Navigator's usual GSG/GBAO. Wording and every figure from Navigator's own toplines PDF; the release's '35%' matches Q22's Total. Two 'LGBTQ+ issues' items in the same PDF never name transgender people or gender identity and are left out.

Figures below are transcribed from these documents. Where they disagree with the source, the source governs.
