21. Uh, what is the percentage of homosexuality in the general population?

How many lesbians in YOUR high school? Think gaydar brings them together? Ever been present for a coming out? What does any teenager want more than anything else? TO FIT IN. She dated boys. Gosh. How unbearably lonely was that for a girl who couldn't want any boy as much as another girl. Even just to talk about how it felt to be so different.

Stunningly shallow and insensitive question.

Google search returns right wing sites for those claims. alp227 Jun 2013 #9
