#plus I think the second paragraph's link was from when the survey had 2k responses so its not even the 4.5k of now.

the survey stops counting age at 45 and most of the responses are from tumblr. theres people above 40 who use this site but this survey was not advertised specifically to people who still fall into the 30-45 age range, or older, as far as I can tell. the survey op states the survey will skew to a younger demographic (link).
genuinely cant find any posts from their blog compiling what % of people found the survey through what site/source.
to reiterate biknuckles' point its incredibly shitty to state "the groups who don’t prefer it’s use as an umbrella term are straight people, exclusionists, transmeds, truscums, sex-negative people, and sex work critical people"
when there are still people in other groups who do not prefer its use and their numbers are not included in this paragraph, painting everyone who doesn't prefer it as a bigot.
I'm also not finding posts on if they compiled the answers to "Regarding the term "queer" specifically, do you consider it to be an acceptable umbrella term?", in which the answers were "yes", "yes but only for people who specifically identify as queer, not for the community as a whole", "no", and "null". only posts regarding "x amount found the term as an acceptable umbrella term".
Friendly reminder that LGBTQ+, Queer, and LGBT+ are the preferred terms for the community (x).
Friendly reminder that Queer is approved by 72.9% of the people, and the groups who don’t prefer it’s use as an umbrella term are straight people, exclusionists, transmeds, truscums, sex-negative people, and sex work critical people (x).
Friendly reminder that aros and aces are excluded only 9.2% / 8.1% of the time respectively while being included  78.9% / 81.2% of the time (x)
Friendly reminder that exclusionists are in the minority and aro/ace people are included in the LGBTQ+ community by the people within the community.
