25 % TWENTY FIVE PERCENT X390 (GETTY AND PHOTOS) | ADVOCATE.COM
A new Gallup poll indicates that the average American believes that a
quarter of the population is gay or lesbian. Additionally, 35% of those
polled think the figure is even higher.
Participants were asked, "Just your best guess, what percent of Americans
today would you say are gay or lesbian?" Only 4% of respondents say less
than 5% of Americans are gay. Gallup asked the same question in 2002, with
average estimates that 21% of men were gay and 22% of women.
The poll is a heavy contrast from the Williams Institute study from earlier
this year counting only 3.5% of the population as gay, lesbian, or bisexual,
and another 1% as transgender. | w*****8
