“A Simmons Research study of readers of the National Gay Newspaper Guild’s 12 publications found that, compared to the average American, LGBT respondents are 12 times more likely to be in professional jobs, almost twice as likely to own a vacation home, eight times more likely to own a notebook computer, and twice as likely to own individual stocks. More than two-thirds have graduated from college, and 21 percent hold a master’s degree.”
