I don’t know. 29% of gen z self reporting as LBGTQ seems high. I think people greatly underestimate the need for kids to feel special and acknowledged. It is the reverse of shaming in this case. 40 years ago shamming was keeping people in the closet, but when that same thing suddenly becomes cool and desirable there will be a subset of people just looking to increase their status. You have to ignore human nature to believe this doesn’t exist at some level.
