The analyzed data also reveals that overall 23 percent of U.S. college students identify as LGBTQ—a number similar to a Gallup poll which found 20.8 percent of Generation Z identified as LGBT in February 2022.

In contrast, the national average of Americans identifying as LGBT in the Gallup poll was 7.1 percent.

My great-grandmother, born in 1885, often said that she was ready to die due to the way she had seen things change. And this was in the ‘70’s. As a kid, I could never understand that. Not that I want to die but I definitely get it now.

Being LBQT etc. is the new cool trend. Why everyone is doing it ...look at those cool people on Tik-Tok, Hollywood celebrities are embracing it, the government is upholding your right to whack off your genitals and take dangerous drugs to change your wrong gender and guys competing as girls are winning medals and media ovation for how great they are. An unholy alliance of big pharma and gender bending therapists are making lots of money off the trend.

The majority of us who are normal see this as crazy and absurd, but are shamed into silence by the woke. I think the trend will burn itself out. Already the gay are taking umbrage with the trans crowd. Things have gotten so absurd over gender that no reasonable thinking individual can possibly accept this as the new norm.

College applications almost certainly have a place where you declare your gender, and kids know that picking a sodomite gender will help their chance of acceptance.

I guessing a lot of closeted normals. Also possible discrimination against in admissions.

There in no way this reflects the real demographics of that age group.

It’s a fad. And independent thought is “not cool”. So this is what you end up with.

that’s due to the ‘diversity’ component of the admission score

straight white Christian males need not apply

Fads and social contagion are factors. But the popular culture — including entertainment media, social media and the schools — are now 100 percent behind homosexual and trans recruitment and grooming. Same sex experimentation is being actively encouraged. Any dissenting view is sanctioned, with social media exerting a tyranny of opinion that is unprecedented. To cap it off, scoring is being done on the Brezhnev Doctrine model; anyone who has ever had even the slightest brush with non-binary disease — often a drunken escapade in high school or college — is being counted as forever branded.

We have always known that there is some plasticity in sexual orientation. The conventional examples include homosexual rape and predatory homosexuality in prisons. The problem historically occurred among sailors, who in prior eras could be at sea and largely isolated from women for years at a time (and whose heterosexual behavior when in port was often appalling — not unlike what goes on now in “sophisticated” sex positive quarters, with drugs and alcohol fueling predatory, exploitative behavior). And we have always known that early childhood sexual abuse is a powerful driver of SSAD (and depression and substance abuse) in adulthood.

On a parallel track, the popular culture now celebrates promiscuity, teaching young women that it is good to be a slut and young men that they should expect sexual favors as an entitlement. The dating scene has become incredibly toxic. I would not be surprised if a fair number of young people, especially young women, are declaring as gay as a way of opting out. Be alone, be a slut, or be gay. Heckuva choice.

It’s all about sex now, as much as possible and in all varieties, with marriage, children, stable families and long-term commitment of any kind being thrown under the bus. I’m not quite sure how to phrase it, but the sexual revolution in general and the BLTQXYZ sexual anarchy are really nothing more than the normalization — and cultural privileging — of what we have always understood as the homosexual norm of sexual behavior. Everything changes when the culture takes long term considerations, starting with children, off the table.

We now live in a culture that is bending every effort normalize and inculcate mental illness. The solution? Well, it’s going to be a long and difficult battle, but we have to build a sane counterculture. The single most important thing would be to reclaim the schools or, failing that, to achieve full school choice and parental control. That might actually be achievable. We need to walk out of any institution that has gone over to the other side. And we need to build our own cultural institutions, including social media and entertainment. We won’t beat something with nothing. We have to engage and provide serious alternatives. To do that, we first have to stand clear of collectivist arrangements, which are now solidly controlled by the left.

The pendulum will eventually swing back, but a whole generation is being indoctrinated with lies, and the casualty rate is going to be very high. The sexual revolutionaries are rebuilding a pagan sexual culture. Women and children will be most affected. Sooner or later, people will figure it out.

That’s because they want to be popular and left alone. Mess with one of these freaks and up a creek.
