Is this really so shocking? The media has been over-saturing the news with gay issues for years now so I'm not surprised people think there are more gays than there really are.

It's all part of the Gay Agenda- "make them think we're as big as an army"

Half of the network television shows have gay characters and every Hollywood heroine needs a gay sidekick for comedy relief. Is it any wonder this misconception exists?

Still they should think about everyone they have ever known. Are 25% gay? Not even close. I can see the point about the media but we must also blame the American people for not thinking critically.

Wait, let me try to understand what you're saying.

You claim that as a heterosexual you are being forced--forced--to send a thank-you card to J.C. Penney? How are you being forced to do this? What is going to happen to you, or to me, for that matter, if we don't?

You also say that you are regularly being accosted by gay men at the urinals at the bars or other establishments you frequent, and that you are being prevented from rebuffing those advances? Again, could you recount for me the last time this happened to you and how you were prevented from rejecting those advances? Frankly, I just don't believe it ever happened.

Prowly because it never did. JESUS, you people take this stuff to heart. I'll also add that none you have a sense of humor between the lot of yas. It sure must hurt to be stuck between straight and gay is all I have to say. Not me!! I feel no obligation whatsoever to run their agenda and lame attempts of converting the rest of us. Ain't gonna happen....at least off the coasts.

2 percent of Americans are OPENLY gay. Can't you see the distinction, stupid? Kinsey found decades ago, on the other hand, that in a given 3 year period, ten percent of men were exclusively involved in sexual relations with other men... but most were not self-identified as gay. ALOT of homosexual sex out there.

You think promoting hate is funny?
Really?

I know of at least one bisexual farmer... but he's not exactly open about it? Gays exist in every occupation and industry.
