What, that gay people are often coerced into staying in the closet?In case you're willing to actually consider facts for once (you aren't, and I can't type that with a straight face, but whatever), I'd like to point out that your study measured the number of people who are openly gay, not the number of people who are gay. I believe the typical estimate is that 10% of most any population will be gay. Also, your study doesn't account for asexual people (although they'd presumably be part of the 1.1% who answer "I don't know" or "something else") which calls its rigor into question— when one wants to measure how many people fit into each of four categories, one typically mentions all four. |
