Mindset of straight people regarding sexual minorities in Japan 2020

In a survey conducted in December 2020, around 34 percent of heterosexual Japanese respondents were grouped into a category called "aware, but not taking action". This category groups people who are generally aware of the LGBTQ+ community, but do not consider LGBTQ+ issues, as they are not acquainted with anyone directly affected. Approximately 29 percent of respondents were evaluated to be active supporters of sexual minorities.The acronym LGBTQ+, often just LGBT, is an umbrella term describing members of sexual minorities. The individual letters stand for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer or questioning, with the "+" including an additional and larger spectrum of sexual identities and gender identities.

在2020年12月进行的一项调查中，约34%的异性恋日本受访者被归类于所谓的“意识到但未采取行动”这一类别。该类别汇集了那些总体上了解LGBTQ+社群，但并未将LGBTQ+议题纳入考量，因为他们并未与任何直接受影响的人相识的人。大约29%的受访者被评估为性少数群体的积极支持者。LGBTQ+（常简称为LGBT）这一缩写是一个涵盖性少数群体成员的统称。其中的各个字母分别代表女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、跨性别以及酷儿或疑惑，而“+”号则包括了更为广泛且庞大的性身份和性别身份的谱系。
