    All the gay people are gay. Roughly 10 percent.

    Different research suggests between 2.5% and 10% of the population is gay. Part of the reason for the fluctuation has to do with how 'gay' is defined...whether it's an issue of behaviour or merely attraction.

  • I'd like to be optemistic and say over 50%... But unfortunately that would be one of the biggest lies in the World (For now...)

    I can only say that there are averagely 4 - 5 % of Homosexual (Sexually attracted to same sex) people in the World.

    But there are many different terrms for "Gay".

    Estimates that have been repeatedly duplicated indicate around 10% of the population is gay - and that's worldwide, whether or not the culture is accepting of it.

    That's a difficult one, because there is no concrete definition of what "gay" is. Is it people who openly identify as gay, or is it people who are attracted to the opposite sex and engage in sexual behaviour with the opposite sex, but don't necessarily call themselves "gay". Are you including bisexual people?
