how do we feel the age-sex pattern of queer identification in our kinship networks? check out our preprint or come see us present in the queer family demography section at PAA! dx.doi.org/10.4054/MPID... (w/ carolyn hong & @demography.bsky.social)

What can demography teach us about the "gay cousin at Thanksgiving" meme? A lot! If you were born in the 80s, 90s, or 00s, you could have one queer cousin, on average*. Younger cohorts have fewer cousins overall, but still have a strong share who are queer. * for an American woman in 2023.

I wrote up a short post about some additional findings regarding the age of kin across women’s life course and how that may shape care demands, as well as a link to my poster and working paper: elenapojman.com/paa-2025/
