* but smile and pretend to be gay *

But se and pretend to be gay. More specifilly, meddlg kids who thk ’s funny to intify as gay or lbian on surveys—and who then give exaggerated rpons to other qutns about, say, substance e or eatg habs.

Cimpian, whose new study the Amerin Journal of Public Health explor this emergg problem, said that he was tipped off to s potential sle when he noticed how equently the ostensibly gay kids on one survey reported beg bld—way beyond what would be expected. “What we found is that ‘gay’ kids are way more likely to be bld and to be af and to have three or more children of their own and all sorts of thgs, ” he told The Daily Beast.

”For their new study, Cimpian and his team looked at data om the CDC’s 2015 Youth Risk Behavr Survey, which is admistered to high-schoolers, lookg only at jurisdictns where the YRBS asked about sexual, through a sophistited statistil analysis that required immense putg power and mache-learng techniqu, the rearchers were able to fd many of the so-lled “mischievo rponrs” the data simplt way to scribe their method is that they intified—and then weed out—youth who said they were “gay” but who also said that they were preternaturally tall and ate rrots four or more tim a day every sgle day. But that uld have the effect of makg seem like gay and bisexual boys are abg substanc at much higher rat than they actually do.

BUT SE AND PRETEND TO BE GAY.

Even by removg the 10 percent of rponrs who "provid the most unual patterns of rpons, " dispari between straight and gay or bisexual boys creased by an average of 28 percent, the study not.
