Just how many gay people are there? We've accepted Kinsey's report as the
'standard,' leading to the 1 in 10 figure. A lot has changed since the 50s..
The figure I've most recently heard, from an "athority" was 10% Gay/Lesbian
and 23% Bisexual.... I don't know where these statistics are from, but he
implied that they are recent.

I thought I read that the real number was about 10% of the population. I don't remember where I read that -- I think it was sort of a common knowledge thing. Anyone else?? Corinne
