GLSEN (recently rebranded as “Glisten”) is a major national advocacy organization promoting LGBTQ ideology in schools. Every few years, it releases its National School Climate Survey, which claims to show that schools are unsafe for LGBTQ students. Those findings are then used to justify codifying LGBTQ ideology into law, school policy, and curriculum. The survey’s statistics are cited in court cases, including the dissent in Mahmoud v. Taylor, and are incorporated into many schools’ sex education lessons. The numbers are frequently treated as authoritative national statistics. But the underlying data comes from an anonymous online survey open to anyone who claims to be LGBTQ and between the ages of 13 and 21. Beyond the obvious self-selection bias, since students who see themselves as victimized are more likely to participate, there is no way to verify who is actually responding. The whole gender ideology narrative is a house of cards built on lies. (Link in comments.)
