Abstract

In this study, cisgender women were more likely to report victimization than cisgender men or gender minorities; more bi/pansexual and asexual people reported victimization than did heterosexual or gay/lesbian participants. However, most bi/pansexual and all asexual participants were cisgender women, suggesting gender confers more risk than does sexual orientation.
