I think it's not true, the lesbian population didn't increase. It's the same percent of people it has always been. However nowadays it's easier to come forward with it. In the past lesbians were mostly hiding their sexualities, afraid of negative reactions from society. Those negative reactions have disappeared, it's far more widely accepted. But the fact that lesbians in the past were hiding their sexualities doesn't mean they weren't lesbians. They just kept it a secret.
IIN to wonder Why has the Lesbian Population increased?
