• B) bisexual, lesbian, and gay people are more likely to demonstrate gender nonconforming behaviors before puberty than straight people.
• C) straight people are more likely to demonstrate gender nonconforming behaviors before puberty than bisexual, lesbian, and gay people.
• D) gender nonconforming behaviors were demonstrated significantly more than gender conforming behaviors before puberty for participants of all orientations.
