Americans believe that there are six times as many gays and lesbians in the population as there actually are, according to new data released by Gallup.

According to Gallup’s tracking surveys in the first four of 2015, 3.8 percent of the U.S. adult population says they are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender.

However, in a survey conducted May 6-10, Gallup asked: “Just your best guess, what percent of Americans today would you say are gay or lesbian?”

On average, Americans said it was 23.2 percent. …

Because most of the people in office were from the hippie era and did a lot of drugs.
Also, Politics, like Hollywood, draws warped people who would like to be like regular folks but who are really power hungry control freaks with a huge need for some perceived payback? They love the planet, in a puppy love sort of way, but hate existence? They really hate Christianity. They HATE people who do not EMBRACE, not except or tolerate, but EMBRACE their warped perspectives.

Just my observation.I don’t have any statistics to back it up.

... and they count “bisexual” when measuring the gay population, but not when asking the perceptions of the public.

But, but it’s the IN thing and all the cool kids are doing it!

You forgot to add in the big babies who crave attention. Claiming to be gay is the easiest way to get AtTeNtIoN and everyone bowing down to them these days.

Given the level of TV and Media outright promotion of “gay”, which is higher than the real representation of “gay” persons in the country, and just how much TV and the media shape popular opinions, it is completely understandable why most people think there are more “gay” people than there actually are.

Nice brainwashed sheeple. How freaking stupid can you be ? Americans also believe “gays are born that way” when there is no genetic evidence that this is true. They live on slogans designed by some of the most evil people of society.

not just democrats but professional campaign managers on both sides and establishment republicans and anyone in DC.

the thoughts go:

Homosexuals have no children so the spend money on frivolous things.

Homosexuals have been kicked out of their families or disinherited so their money can be directed to politicians.

1.3-1.7 is the number used by homosexuals in all their court papers.

And 90% of the 3.8%% are Darwinists. Go figure.

Smithsonian, always questionable, always some self-or like minded benefactor-serving agenda. Since the beginning, if you look back far enough.

So it is even less than Gallup finds.

It is such a small minority is is likely that most people don’t have ANY homosexuals in their close circle of friends and those in theater majors have only a few. Yet, they have literally made a Federal Case out of this nonsense!
