1 in 4? I have to think either I'm the most isolated person on the planet or these people don't even look at their own experience at all. I have a total of zero homo friends, friends of friends, coworkers, or acquaintances. At least that I know of. Meaning anyone I've met in person enough that'd I'd recognize them on the street (celebrities excluded of course). 1 in 4?!

On average. Many think most Americans are FGTS.

Looking at the average emasculated American I can see why they'd think that tbh.

It's clear that the "average American" has been fully convinced to disregard their own experience and judgements in favor of whatever the sanctioned experts declare.

Be it diseases, sexuality, or discrimination, they will parrot views that are wildly incongruous with their personal experience once there's enough top-down social pressure.

They've been told that "gay people are everywhere" for so long now, that belief has replaced reality for them.

Correct. There are a few big cities that might have maybe 8% or 10% of the population that is gay, but that’s maybe two cities. A few other cities might be 3-4%. Then the rest of the country is sub 1%. However one of the cities with a huge percentage is NYC and they dominate media and advertising jobs, which in turn creates a massive appearance of over repression.

And to clarify when I say 8-10% I mean of the male population not overall population.

If you're to trust the media the whole world is 50% gay and 50% black. People might think there just aren't many in their particular area.

You're not wrong, but could probably disprove 1 in 4 just from people I know that are in relationships with the opposite sex. Unless you buy the concept that a ton of those are really gay and afraid to show it.
