How come only 1.51% of the populace is gay but 1/3 of the TV shows have gays as featured characters? How come more people speak Tagalog than are vegans and I've never heard of Tagalog?

Tagalog is the native Filpino language.

I will ponder on those interesting questions. Perhaps some of the gay population didn't want to answer questions.

Because Hollywood is gay.

Tagalog is the primary dialect of the Philippines. I'm a white boy, and I was had passable fluency at one time in Tagalog. They are very common in some parts of the US, non-existent in others.

"I've never heard of Tagalog"

Indiginous language of the Philippines. (When those folks speak English it is WAY difficult to understand them.)

No offense intended--just my experience here in multi-cultural SoCal, where we get a lot of experience with such issues.
