I bet the numbers are exaggerated (e.g. what was the definition of LGBTQ content)! However, even if you half the number it is still very high to be comfortable!
How the celebrity cult of LGBTQ is spread!
It appears the report is dated and was perhaps only refreshed now that Netflix is all over the news. The content of the report appears to be largely amateurish.
"... By age four, most children, 58 percent, have their own video tablet, according to Common Sense Media. But the shows aimed at children can’t be trusted with your child’s brain.
Television producers are using their entertainment platforms to normalize LGBT values in the minds of very impressionable audiences, and it is becoming the rule, not the exception.
Some 41 percent of children’s shows on Netflix are pushing the LGBT agenda, according to a recently released report by Concerned Women for America (CWA). ..."
"... In early October 2025, Netflix’s LGBTQ agenda surfaced when a clip from the Netflix original series Dead End: Paranormal Park in which a character named Barney “outs” himself as trans to his friend, Norma, went viral. Elon Musk amplified the clip with a call to cancel Netflix. After Musk’s tweet, Netflix stock lost an estimated $15 billion in value, and Internet sleuths set to work exposing other examples of LGBTQ+ content on Netflix children’s programming (some of which are documented here). ...
Our report also reveals that Netflix content creators have knowingly pushed the envelope in an effort to expose children to adult themes. Netflix’s children’s programming far outpaced real-world LGBTQ demographics and accelerated dramatically after 2021,” said Nance.
Less than 10% of the overall population identifies as gay, trans or nonbinary, but the numbers are significantly higher for Gen Z, and continue to trend upward: roughly 11% in 2017 to over 20% in 2023, mirroring the surge in LGBTQ content in children’s media — particularly on Netflix — that came online during Gen Z’s formative years and suggesting the possibility of a closed feedback loop, with the media children consume both reflecting and then reinforcing their embrace of LGBTQ+ identity.
In 2021, 42% of children’s programming that debuted on Netflix contained LGBTQ content, characters, themes, or messaging. On Netflix, upwards of 60% of shows rated appropriate for children (TV-G, TV-Y, TV-Y7) that launched in 2023 (whether licensed or original) contained LGBTQ+ characters, themes, or messaging. In fact, there were fewer children’s shows introduced in 2023 that did not have LGBTQ content (9) than shows that did (14). ..."
"... Methodology
Researchers compiled references to LGBTQ+ themes, characters, storylines, and messaging across 326 Netflix series (both licensed and original) rated for young audiences (TV-G, TV-Y, or TV-Y7). Representation was categorized as “Explicit” (characters clearly identified as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, or nonbinary), “Implied” (non-primary characters or “queer-coded” characters), “Meta” (gay
families or participants in reality programming), or “None.” ...
In May of this year [2021?], Netflix published a report in cooperation with the University of Southern California Annenberg Inclusion Initiative highlighting Netflix’s efforts to add diversity to its original films and series. The report boasts about the high percentage of LGBTQ leads across all Netflix original series: “2023 was a standout year as over half (52.4%) of all episodic programs featured LGBTQ+ characters as 10% or more of series regulars.” ..."
