Well i'm sure a lot of people fall into a minority group so by your thinking the range of potential housemates would vastly decrease. Are people who aren't white not regular people? Are people with disabilities not regular? Are people with a certain eye colour not regular?
People should be put in the house on their personality alone, of course that doesn't happen for example we have to have a few good looking guys to keep the teenage girls watching. I think its really wrong to ask for certain people not to be in. We should judge housemates on their personality, nothing else.

no

the gays just fall into type and hang around with the women pretending to be women and thus act as ugly women.

this then reduces the number of guys in the house

people who define their person by their sexuality tend to be dull so lets not have them

I didn't know someones sex was determined by who they hung around with
I think we should look at people as individuals rather that as part of groups according to their sexuality. It's very old fashioned to just stereotype a group and dislike them. There is a lot of diversity between gays like there is between straight people.

information superhighway

perhaps you have different figures?

Stonewall accept Government estimates of around 5%

generally estimates are a touch over

there will be no questions in the 2011 census about sexuality so there will be no "exact figs" anytime soon

On Tibb and DS i would imagine 20 and 30% would be more accurate but that is skewed due to content.
