I think 10% is probably accurate, it seems the homos are everywhere these days!

How can a group demand Civil Rights yet avoid being counted in the Census?

10% is to laugh. Uproariously.

I’ve long maintained that even their “more reasonable” 2% figure is pure mythology.

Old news. Still, the surveyors tossed non-responses from the computations. The result continues to be a gross overestimation of the number of homosexuals in the population.

I’ve found that a lot of teenage girls and young adult women are what I call “Internet lebians”. They call themselves lesbian or bisexual but have never had any lesbian experiences and don’t seem to be in any rush to try. I think they say it because it makes them feel special.

One of the most twisted that I’ve encountered was an internet lesbian muslim.

This story again brings us back to our old nemesis...the media.

The media loves gays. Why? Well, they're controversial, and they get conservatives upset.

It would not matter if the gay population were 1/2 of 1%...they would still be media darlings and would still suck up [if you'll excuse the metaphor] all the attention from the press.

Taking this back to its simplest form, it's like when you told you Mom you wanted those new sneakers, because "everybody has them", when in reality maybe only 3 or 4 of the kids (the popular/rich kids) actually had a pair.

It seems that gays are everywhere because they have become the media's best friends; they're on game shows, sitcoms, and all over the news.

So, I'm not buying the 10% figure, unless you go to Little Five Points in Atlanta. They are concentrated in certain areas across the country...usually in the same areas where the MSM is concentrated...and they are - by and large - attention whores.

The number will go down or up depending on whether or not society stops them from recruiting.

If you watch anything on the ‘Bravo’ network - I’d say 50%...

The NHSLS found that 2.8% of the male, and 1.4% of the female, population identify themselves as gay, lesbian, or bisexual. See Laumann, et al,

And even some moron Libtards think that you add 2.8% and 1.4% together for a total of 4.2% Sodomites.

Obviously it averages to 2.1%.

What concerns me is the number of people that are practicing heteros yet vote in favor of gay marriage. In California 48 percent of the people voted for it. I think there are a lot of people still in closets or people that are curiously sympathetic to sodomites.

I believe th 1-2% level

Interestingly enough probably 20-25% (conservative estimate) of the crap coming out of Hollywood features homosexual entertainment of some sort.

Among women, 86% said they were attracted only to males

Meaning 14% are not.

Many women are attracted to women, and I can't blame them--women are beautiful creatures. :-) I also know women who aren't attracted to women yet say they can easily see how others are. So that's a large chunk of the population with empathy for those with these sexual desires.

But a lot of the disconnects are based on definitions of "homosexuality." I prefer using a term like "homophilia" for those who are attracted to same sex, with "homosexual" for those who act upon the attractions. But even that doesn't get to the definitional question...what about those who "tried it" but don't continue? Activists twist Kinsey's numbers to include them as "homosexual."



I also think a being a victim of abuse tends to lead to some of this.

I think the more interesting number in these sexual statistics is the number of practicing celibates. The number is a real 10%, defined as the number of adults who haven’t had any sex for over a year.

I thought once of promoting this group as a political faction. Think of the pluses. They produce no unwanted pregnancies or diseases. Rape no one. Leave little kids alone. Should make for a worthy platform, but then I’d have to give up sex myself. Too high a price.

But celibates sure are underrepresented in the media.

Years ago, Rosie O'Donnell screeched on O'Reilly's show:
Well, you know Bill. Ten percent of every animal species on Earth is gay"
.

I almost fell out of my chair. The same folks who ardently believe that evolution is the only explanation for how we got here, are trying to tell us that an evolutionarily dead-end practice is common throughout nature.

"Every animal species".? Hmmm...I'm pretty sure there's no sodomy in the Grizzly Bear, Mule Deer, or Alligator "communities". How about those cute little Rabbits. Everyone knows how much they like to do it, why not a little "gay bunny love"? Unless they also breed to pass along their genes (which, I guess by gay logic, would make the animals "bi"), it's an aberrant, one-generation phenomenon, and homosexual animals would have died out millions of generations ago.

Which means it must be something other than an inherited trait, or a "gene". From a strictly evolutionary perspective, there's no way for a "trait" that prevents/precludes transmission of one's genes to be passed along for any significant period of time. Again, it's a dead end.

Hmmm... maybe that means it's not genetic. Maybe that really means that it's a behavior? Ya think? Can't have that, because then they'd have to look at themselves as responsible for their own behavior. And when your behavior is risky, self-destructive, and outside of the norms of the society in which you live, who wants to be pestered by that revelation? Or, you could surreptitiously and/or violently overturn those pesky norms, and force everyone to accept you, evoking your very own little evolutionary regression (devolution?).

I pretty much quit watching O'Reilly that moment, because he never said a word to her about her ridiculous statement, letting it pass into the lexicon of contemporary "tolerance" mythology.

Anyway, the ten-percent thing is, and always will be, BS. It's two to maybe three-percent, tops. It just seems like more because they are the loudest voices in the room, and because they thrust themselves into the limelight (with the willing help of the Tolerance Mafia).

Homosexuality is not a race and as far as a natural occurance would go it would be classifed as a defect. Scientifically speaking and species that cannot procreate will soon become exticnt.

It seems that 10% figure is right—on TV that is.

HA Ping.

Thanks for posting. Many of us here have been discussing the 2.1% (not 10%) number for years.

Exposed: The Myth That "10% Are Homosexual"

I read it different. I thought everyone was 10% homosexual.

So I started sleeping with one out of ten men I met.
