the number for LGBT lumped together is ~4.5%. who knows how much of that is BT.
The most recent surveys say 4.5 percent, but keep in mind even in an anonymous setting there will still be those that will not be truthful, especially as far as those that have bi-sexual tendencies. Now if you break down the survey, the millennials which would most likely to be more candid then previous generations show 8.2 percent identify as part of the LGBT community.
Or even more so, most people over estimate the Jewish population in the US which is actually less then half of the LGBT population.
And yet The Right here on CD and elsewhere start thread after thread about Israel and god forbid anyone bullied a Jew, etc......
Yeah, that's very weird.
For even a semi-accurate number I think you should poll only those from 16-35 or so because older than that many have made decisions and/or become less sexual, etc. which skew the results.
Taken that way, I think a 5 or 6% number (at least) would be evident with maybe another couple being bi or anything goes......
Taken across the entire populations (since most all of us eventually go through those sexual years), that would be about 20 million, although many may be suppressed and not sexual at all or not know it, etc.
Either way, it's 2 to 3X the number of Jews.....a larger number than Mormons and much larger than population like the Amish.
Baloney. Its about .001%. The rest just can't get a date.
^^^^^This. The entire deflection of "IDENTIFYING" as something is invalid. There are Gays, Lesbians, Bi, and a very few actual Trans. The entire group makes up NO MORE than 3% if that. Take out the poseurs who "identify" as whatever.
I have a hmm FRIEND, who thought it was much higher because every Woman he asked out told him so. Really its a friend not me, nope never any problems there.
