Contributions and limitations of available sources for studying the social status of gay and lesbian populations
Structure by age, level of education, and social background of women and men in same-sex and different-sex unions*
* Missing data were imputed.
Source: Family and Housing survey (INSEE 2011), weighted data.
Factors associated with the likelihood of having a level of education above upper secondary versus upper secondary or lower, (odds ratios)
Interpretation: A statistically significant odds ratio higher than 1 indicates that for the modalities concerned, when compared to the reference modality of the variable under consideration, the factor increases the chances of belonging to the modelled group. The further the odds ratio is from 1, the greater the influence of the factor in question. For example, for a given age and occupation of the mother, the fact of being in a same-sex union increases the likelihood for a woman that she will report having higher education, compared to a woman in a different-sex union (OR = 1.42).
Source: Family and Housing survey, INSEE 2011, weighted data.
Employment status of women and men by type of union (%)
Interpretation: 11% of women in same-sex unions work part-time.
Source: Family and Housing survey, INSEE 2011, weighted data.
Women’s sectors of activity, by type of union (%)
Interpretation: 4.7% of women in same-sex unions are employed in the “accommodation and food services” sector. The results have a 95% confidence interval.

Men’s sectors of activity, by type of union (%)
Interpretation: 7% of men in same-sex unions are employed in the “accommodation and food services” sector. The results have a 95% confidence interval.
Source: Family and Housing survey, INSEE 2011, weighted data.
Women’s occupational categories, by type of union (%)
Interpretation: 6.3% of women in same-sex unions are private-sector executives. The results have a 95% confidence interval.
Source: Family and Housing survey, INSEE 2011.
Men’s occupational categories, by type of union (%)
Interpretation: 11.7% of men in same-sex unions are private-sector associate professionals. The results have a 95% confidence interval.

Distribution of women and men in a union, by sector of activity and under-/over-representation of women and men in same-sex unions
Note: Black borders indicate an over-representation of women (left) or men (right) in same-sex unions in the given sector, and dotted green borders indicate an under-representation. The numbers in parentheses for each sector indicate the percentage of the active population in each sector.

Distribution of men and women in same-sex and different-sex-unions by gender profile of occupational categories
Interpretation: 30.7 % of women in same-sex unions work in a mixed occupational category, versus 20.6% of women in different-sex unions.

Distribution of men and women in same-sex and different-sex-unions by gender profile of occupational categories and by level of education (%)
Coverage: Women and men aged 25-59 in a same-sex or different-sex union.

NAF code by sex and type of union, after matching
Coverage: Women and men aged 25-59 in same-sex unions, matched with individuals in different-sex unions with similar characteristics.

Occupational category by type of union, after matching
Coverage: Women and men aged 25-59 in same-sex unions, matched with individuals in different-sex unions with similar characteristics.

Post-secondary qualification by type of union, age group (%), and hazard ratio
Interpretation: 43.8% of women aged 45-59 in a same-sex union have a post-secondary qualification (bachelor’s degree or higher). These women more often have a post-secondary qualification than women of the same age group in different-sex unions (HR = 2.44).

Factors associated with being in a same-sex (versus different-sex) union, (odds ratios)
Interpretation: A statistically significant odds ratio (higher than 1) indicates that for the modality studied, when compared to the reference modality of the variable under consideration, the factor increases the chances of belonging to the modelled group. The further the odds ratio is from 1, the greater the influence of the factor in question.
