Friday’s news from Gallup is a stunner, indeed, for apparently they find that US adults, on average, estimate that 25 percent of Americans are gay or lesbian.
To get to that figure, it took over half of Americans (52 percent) estimating that at least one in five Americans are gay or lesbian, including 35 percent who estimate that more than one in four are.
Thirty percent put the figure at less than 15 percent.
Only 4 percent of respondents chose a figure in line with scientific data, released earlier this year by UCLA’s Williams Institute.
In West Hollywood a solid 38 percent of people identify as gay, lesbian, transgender or bi-sexual.
