He's surely means that he's feels he would be having the gay agenda forced down upon him if a gay married couple moved next door to him.
Then he would find out that on average gay couples have a higher income, make better neighbors, and are better housekeepers. It would WRECK the fantasy he has built up in his head about those dirty nasty F#@$.
There's an entire thread elsewhere on CD about how inappropriate it is for a boy to wear a dress to school, but nobody even notices when girls dress in boys' clothes.
... and that number is undoubtedly higher, as it takes a long time for a very large amount of homosexuals to admit to THEMSELVES that they are gay first before they would ever even say it outloud.
Between 3 and 5% has always been the most realistic number of homosexuals in the United States.
That extra 1.5% will also include people who live a lie their entire lives.
Personally, I think it is closer to 10%, this would include those that are conflicted in their sexuality, as some in this thread may be.
Last year my sister, who was one class under me, and my old girlfriend, who was one class over me, were looking through an old year book. We started talking about who was gay in our class.
We come from a small town in rural Oklahoma of about 3,000 people. There were 76 in my class and we were able to find 7 that we knew of that are gay. My sister and my old girlfriend found about the same percentage as I found in my class. We came up with a number at about 9%. Of course that was just a small sample but it ma ybe a close representation of rest of the population.
Of 315 in my senior class, there was only one definite gay person. He couldn't help but be out, since he got caught giving oral sex to a boy in the gym shower during freshman year. ( Funny, I don't remember who the guy was on the receiving end.) The only out guy seemed to get shunned more than bullied. But in the junior yearbook the first name by his picture was "Karen." I don't remember how he made it through high school, unless him having a good sense of humor helped. And years later from talk, I learned of several others gay and was shocked to learn two of them were lovers in secret during high school.
