The data doesn't really make sense, more than 50% of the population would be LGBTQ+? 🤔

What makes you think 50%? The highest percentage in one particular age group is about 28% meaning the average of the whole population is of course much lower.

The graph says % of total population, you've got 28% for gen z and 16% for gen y, that's 44% right there...

Maybe having the actual study would make things clearer...

Ah yes, you're right. I read it as "% ot total population of that specific age group" and I guess that is what is meant, but it is not very well phrased indeed.
