... you know being gay it's not a big deal right? It's not like gay people have a third head or something. In the absolute majority of cases you can't even tell if you are talking to a gay guy unless he tells you he is gay, and why would he? Who even cares?
Still, studies like this are waaaay waaaaaaaaaay off the mark. I would be surprised if it's 1/10 people.
Sex studies back in the 50's and 60's kept showing that homosexuals were well under 5% of the population (that includes Bi- who are a really small %).
When asked about this? One (Probably one of the Hites) waved it off as "only half of them are brave enough to tell the truth" and suddenly "10% are gay" was the belief.
As always, that sort of claims "some of them lied" is just lazy. Like obviously there is a margin of error, I doubt it's double tough.
This reminds me of that silly article that claimed Michele Obama was constantly subjected to racial slurs while she was in the Whitehouse lol. There is of course NO evidence of this, but it "might have happened", "it sounds plausible"
iirc Michelle could recall a single 'racist episode' in her lifetime. Just one, and it was a ???? huh moment.
There's no reason to fear exposure from a double-blind, lawful study. Of course if you think it isn't? Then don't participate. But Hite and Kinsey and the rest were VERY openly homo-friendly, subject to strict scrutiny too.
So I agree: the "10%" came from the same place as "6 feet apart" it was fabricated from fantasy.

It was so even during what mass media named "the Gamergate Era" in America.
5% (5.9% already) was crossed only in the latest poll.
