“I’ve never seen a “guess” printed that placed the homosexual population higher than 10%.”
I teach federal government at the local college.
Once a semester I take a poll during class wherein I ask the students what they think is the percentage of homosexuals in the US.
I’ve had estimates up to 50%, with the average around 20-30%.
Very rarely does a student ever estimate the number to be lower than 10%.
None have estimated less than 5%.
