It is difficult to get a 'scientific study of exacting nature' (as one might say) on illegal activity. For that matter it's not easy getting reliable surveys on who has had gay sex, how often and if they identify themselves as 'gay' (and even what that means), but, the illegal activity 'confession' leaves question. One of the reasons we 'know what we don't know' is because (for example) a direct in-person questionnaire can get you some much much lower numbers than an anonymous poll, and, actually there again are other factors. But you can actually find some of these online and by 'better ones' will be the ones giving explanations about why and how they arrived at 20 times the drug usage among homosexuals. (besides saying 'an online poll' or 'survey of gay right activists' etc) Quote:
- For years I lived in an area that would be deemed a 'gay district' by some and lived among, worked with and befriended many a flaming gay. I also got first-hand the spite, contempt and hatred of some, and, certainly had close friends and family. Our city actually could add a 'boast' in that our local 'gay community' was also a multicultural and 'international' gay community. And even further along in education is that part of my job once included being among the first people who tried to find out just what exactly was the gay population, what did they like, what did they do... ...and yes you guessed 'marketing'. At the time there really wasn't any good answers. We had to try and 'find the gays' and more importantly find out what they wanted to buy! In fact our jobs depended on this so no 'rubbish games' allowed on that one. Quote:
Well realize it this way; simply imagine someone did not desire to or actually did have gay sex. Would you consider them gay anymore? This is not complicated. the desire for 'gay sex' IS really the 'minimum requirement' for you to even call a person a homosexual in the first place. Quote:
