Kinsey said 10%.

Now it's 20% ??????

Are we headed for a 20% quota?

Would gay-sympathizing straight people claim they are gay in such a survey to help gay rights?

kinsey the pedophile...would have...tripled the suspected number...at the very least

these 10 or 20 percenters are REALLY pushing the envelope.

Kinsey’s report was quite some time ago, in a time when it was less acceptable. Even ten years is a long time in the development of a culture, much less a subculture.

It is not even 10%. It is around 2-3%. This is TOTAL BS!

If an alien landed and watch US television, he would infer that the US population is 30% black, 30% Hispanic, and 20% gay.

hat’s nearly double the usual estimates of about 10 percent.

No, that's nearly 10 TIMES the ACTUAL estimates of at most, 2 percent.

Telling a lie often doesn't make it any truer.

Now that there is great benefits and little social stigma to being gay, how many straight men will claim to be gay to get those benefits?

To this day, is there any proof Jason Collins is gay? His career was going down the drain, and I am sure that advisers told him he was almost guaranteed to get signed is he was the first gay player. I know most Freepers would not claim to be gay for millions of dollars, but don't you think there are lots of people out there who would claim to be gay for that much money?

Bullstalin.

The “gayest” city is Washington DC with 10% numbers. Newsrooms seem to have even higher numbers than that pushing homosexualist propaganda as “news”.

With all the poofs on tv and in politics, you’d think it was more like 80%.

The question is can proof be provided?

I think you hit on a truth.

we made the mistake of visiting the Smithsonisn which is now run by the radical left .
My wife walked and saw some preachy left wing exhibit in the lobby and yelled we are leaving and bolted before we paid a dime.
My sister and family paid and walked out 15 minutes later and wish they could get there money back.
Its lost to the left folks.

Sorry but this article is total bullsh!t. I watch TV and at the very least every third person on all those shows is gay so its at least 33%...

(Do I really need the sarc tags?)

If you want to see a poll that says 99.9 % of the population is gay you take it in San Francisco...

We need fags.
Have you seen the Olympic uniforms?

Do you suppose that any normal people could have designed those?

No, not hardly.

Ergo, to compete in the Olympics we need fags.

This may sound petty but why the hell was the National Bureau of Economic Research doing a study of sexual deviancy?
