AMERINS STILL GREATLY OVERTIMATE U.S. GAY POPULATN

* gay men in america *

7, 2013WHAT percent of Amerin men are gay?

But somewhere the exabyt of data that human begs create every day are answers to even the most challengg surveys, social works, pornographic search and datg s, I recently studied evince on the number of gay men. While none of the data sourc are ial, they be to tell a nsistent least 5 percent of Amerin men, I timate, are predomantly attracted to men, and lns of gay men still live, to some gree, the closet.

JAGS' MAXEN IS FIRST MALE AMERIN PRO SPORTS ACH TO E OUT AS GAY

U.S. adults timate that nearly one four Amerins (23.6%) are gay or lbian. Gallup has prevly found that Amerins have greatly overtimated the U.S. gay populatn. * gay men in america *

Gay men are half as likely as straight men to acknowledge their sexualy on social works. More than one quarter of gay men hi their sexualy om anonymo surveys.

The evince also suggts that a large number of gay men are married to are three sourc that n give timat of the openly gay populatn broken down by state: the cens, which asks about same-sex hoeholds; Gallup, which has fairly large-sample surveys for every state; and Facebook, which asks members what genr they are terted . While the data sourc all measure different gre of openns, one rult is strikgly siar: All three suggt that the openly gay populatn is dramatilly higher more tolerant stat, fed g an timate by Nate Silver of support for same-sex marriage. On Facebook, for example, about 1 percent of men Mississippi who list a genr preference say that they are terted men; California, more than 3 percent there really so many fewer gay men livg ls tolerant stat?

'GAY AMERI': PHOTOGRAPHS OF GAY MEN FROM ALL 50 STAT

Jaguars assistant Kev Maxen has bee the first male ach major Amerin men's pro sports to publicly e out as gay, tellg he ma the cisn bee he didn't want to hi who he is any longer. * gay men in america *

There is no evince that gay men would be ls likely to be born the stat.

I searched gay and straight men by state of birth and state of current rince. ) Some gay men do move out of ls tolerant stat, but this effect is small.

I timate that the openly gay populatn would be about 0. 1 percentage pots higher the least tolerant stat if everyone stayed percent of male high school stunts who intify themselv as gay on Facebook is also much lower ls tolerant areas.

HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE LBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, AND TRANSGENR?

Bee high school stunts are ls mobile than adults, this suggts that a gay exod om the areas is not a large factor. We n approach the qutn of whether tolerant areas actually have fewer gay men another way, too, by timatg the percent of search for pornography that are lookg for pictns of gay men. The would clu search for such terms as “gay porn” or “Rocket Tube, ” a popular gay pornographic se.

) While tolerant stat have a slightly higher percentage of the search, roughly 5 percent of pornographic search are lookg for pictns of gay men all stat. This aga suggts that there are jt about as many gay men ls tolerant stat as there are anywhere ls tolerant stat have siar percentag of gay men but far fewer openly gay men, there is a clear relatnship between tolerance and openns.

My prelimary rearch dit that for every 20 percentage pots of support for gay marriage about one-and-a-half tim as many men om that state will intify openly as gay on Facebook.

JAGUARS’ KEV MAXEN IS FIRST MALE ACH TO E OUT AS GAY US MEN’S PRO SPORTS

6 percent of Amerin men tell anonymo surveys they are attracted to men and a tenth of gay men say that they do not tell most of the important people their liv. In stat where the stigma agast homosexualy remas strong, many more gay men are the closet than are ep the closet are the men?
