Food insecurity of households with sexual minorities

Abstract

Households with a sexual minority adult may face material difficulties that can lead to an increased risk of food insecurity compared to those without a sexual minority adult. Using data from the 2013–2018 National Health Interview Survey, this study examines the relationship between household food insecurity and the sexual orientation of adult members. The results suggest that households with a male or a female sexual minority adult are more likely to be food insecure than households without a sexual minority adult. Moreover, an increased likelihood of food insecurity due to the presence of a female sexual minority adult is relatively greater than that of a male sexual minority adult.
