Over the period from 2015 to 2018, the proportion of Canadians between the ages of 25 and 64 identifying as bisexual with a post-secondary degree or diploma was slightly higher for men than for women: 68.9 versus 67.7 percent. Regardless of gender, bisexual people tend to have lower levels of education than heterosexual and homosexual people in Canada.

The source adds the following information: "Sexual orientation in research has been assessed on the basis of sexual behaviour, sexual attraction, or self-identity—each of these three concepts yielding slightly different prevalence estimates. In this table, estimates of sexual orientation are based on the survey question which targeted the concept of identity and provided behaviour-based definitions."
