I've never heard an homosexual population figure as high as 13%. I presume
that includes some fringe members in order to swell the ranks, as it were.

It's somewhere near that in the Seattle area. We have districts where it's
probably
35-40%. Much of the rest of the country is probably not as high.

Current estimates range from 2% to 6%.

One of the statistical problems is defining homosexual. There are one heck of a
lot of
bi-sexuals out there, particularly females.
Are these people homo because they sneak out to get kissy with a girlfriend, or
straight because they also make babies with hubby? Tough to categorize.

The number of men who have had a homosexual experience is probably much higher
than the number of men who are
exclusively homosexual as well.

And finally, in the current climate, a lot of folks are going to be reluctant
to mark off "homosexual" on a survey form.
