The most profound trend affecting the gay and lesbian market may be the increasing acknowledgment by American society and legal institutions of marriage equality for gay men and lesbians. The expansion of same-sex marriage and other forms of civil unions over the past decade is triggering an increase in the visible numbers of gay and lesbian family households and consequently an expanding market for consumer goods and services of all kinds. The growing number of gay and lesbian parents means that a substantial number of gay and lesbian family households generate significant expenditures on children as well as on adult household members.

Moreover, survey research shows that gay and lesbian consumers are more optimistic than other consumers about future economic growth and their own personal financial condition. This basic sense of optimism prevailing among gay and lesbian consumers suggests that they are more willing than other consumers to spend on products and services in the wake of the most severe economic downturn in 70 years.
