A majority of gay, lesbian, and bisexual respondents in all European countries indicated in 2019 that they realized they were homosexual before they reached adulthood. Interestingly, this is more the case for countries, such as Lithuania, Bulgaria, and Slovakia which perform poorly on metrics of LGBTQ-friendliness and less so for countries which perform well, such as Denmark, Belgium, and Luxembourg.
