Hi Fae,
Opabinia regalis and I both identified ourselves as bisexual women on our
question pages. Hope that's useful.

identifying as LGBT are handy things to mention in passing in the
candidate statement. It certainly would influence my vote...
I agree, as this is a critical part of the election this year it would
be interesting to see an aggregation of gender and LGBT stats, or a
"diversity index", for candidates and the eventual Arbcom elected, and
to see this compared to past years. Perhaps if someone is writing up a
Signpost article they could include this small bit of research? ;-)

Several candidates (myself included) mentioned our queerness in our
responses to the demographics questions asked by some editors. I don't
know
if there's been any on-wiki aggregation of
that data, however.
