If 2% were gay. That means for every 100 people, that 2 are gay.
That flies in the face of your “25 men” figure.
If 2% of the POPULATION are gay/bi MEN;
AND roughly 50% of the population are FEMALES;
Then 1 in 25 MEN are gay/bi.
I agree that the presentation of statistics in the article could be more clear.
