I Guess That Closet Wasn't So Crowded After All



Ever wondered why all those gays stopped coming out of the closet? There weren't that many of them to begin with. Their agenda to legitimatize perversion was the same tactic practiced by the pro-abortion activists murderous feminists before Roe v. Wade made baby murder legal. They simply lied through their teeth and the media let them get away with it. Even the case presented to the Supreme Court was a set up. The woman was not raped. She simply got knocked up and lied about it.

I remember those days very well. In 1972 I was just out of college and the debate had been raging for some time. The number quoted by feminist murders was 10,000. That's right. Over 10,000 women a year died from coat hangers. When I finally looked it up in the CDC statistics, it was actually around 25. Not 25,000 mind you, just under 25 ....
In 1972 (the year before abortion was federally legalized), a total of 24 women died from causes known to be associated with legal abortions, and 39 died as a result of known illegal abortions (CDC).
The leftists have not changed their tactics.They are lying again. We don't have uncounted millions of gay fellows longing to breathe free while biting the pillow. They do not comprise 25% or even 10% of the US population.
One in ten. It's the name of the group that puts on the Reel Affirmations gay and lesbian film festival in Washington, D.C., each year. It's the percent popularized by the Kinsey Report as the size of the gay male population. And it's among the most common figures pointed to in popular culture as an estimate of how many people are gay or lesbian.

But what percentage of the population is actually gay or lesbian? With the debate over same-sex marriage again an emerging fault line in American political life, the answer comes as a surprise: A lower number than you might think -- and a much, much, much lower one than most Americans believe.

In surveys conducted in 2002 and 2011, pollsters at Gallup found that members of the American public massively overestimated how many people are gay or lesbian. In 2002, a quarter of those surveyed guessed upwards of a quarter of Americans were gay or lesbian (or "homosexual," the third option given). By 2011, that misperception had only grown, with more than a third of those surveyed now guessing that more than 25 percent of Americans are gay or lesbian. Women and young adults were most likely to provide high estimates, approximating that 30 percent of the population is gay. Overall, "U.S. adults, on average, estimate that 25 percent of Americans are gay or lesbian," Gallup found. Only 4 percent of all those surveyed in 2011 and about 8 percent of those surveyed in 2002 correctly guessed that fewer than 5 percent of Americans identify as gay or lesbian.
So, how many are there? No one knows for sure. Estimates range from 4 to 9 million in the US. That is about 1.3% to maybe 6% of the population.

The "Big Lie," as a methodology, is far older than we are.

The leading argument for the New DOMA Bill in a Congressional Debate/Supreme Court Case and State Legislatures Debates.
BUT-----the Gays on the Bench will still RULE in favor for the Gay Marriage thingy.
I've heard that (from a very good source-some Black Robed)there are a large percent of Judges sitting on the Bench, are Homosexual.
Just how does the public think that these off the cuff Rulings and or shooting down the Legal Voter's Referendums are happening?
Judges going against the will of the People--Congress going against the will of the People; all for the tiniest percent of the population with a hankering for LUST (and that goes for Rove v. Wade proponents also)!

Kinsey was a real sicko. He had an agenda and it worked.

Gorges - and we know who the Father of Lies is.

TSWS - I wouldn't doubt it. Apparently many judges feel that they are above the rabble they are supposed to protect. We might want to reconsider the federal system where judges are appointed for life.

Very interesting. Thanks for researching and posting.

Something any tiny rich minority should consider is, when a government becomes powerful enough to give, it becomes powerful enough to take. A stealing (socialist/communist) government will seek the rich minorities and take everything from them.

I find it almost nauseatingly funny that the very party that is trying to get people out of the closet is the one trying to impose totalitarianism on it's citizens. It's like a horror story come to life. "No, we won't hurt you, come on out, be loud and proud. We are with the government, we are here to help you." Seriously, it gives me the chills.

While I have no difficulty saying I am homophobic, I will also say that I approve of genocide much less. I don't want them to be murdered, I just want them back in the closet. Hmm, give em' 10% off lube, then back in the closet?

And the 1.3 - 6% have the same right to the same liberties the rest are entitled to, right?. Or am I missing something? Or is this really just driven by fear?

Silverfiddle - people really have no clue about Kinsey and the damage he has committed upon our society.

sig94 said...

Penny - you're very welcome.

Doom - simply because you do not agree with someone's lifestyle doesn't mean you are homophonic. That is just another contrived handle that the perverts use to marginalize the straight population.

sig94 said...

Rational - they already have the same liberties. A gay male can marry any female he wants. That is his right to marrriage, the same as everyone else.

Simply because you want something does not confer it as a right. Marriage is an intergender agreement or contract established for the healthy upbringing of children, not an intragender masturbation exercise where you cram your penis into the feces-laden, lower intestinal track of another man and stimulate yourself to orgasm.

Every state in the union has laws regulating how many people of the other sex you can be married to at any given moment - and that number is ONE. Do you also claim that people who are predisposed to polygamy have a "right" to have more than one marriage partner? Societies have a keen interest in the regulation of marital contracts because of their impact on the family structure and thus the very basis of society. For this very reason societal control of the marriage contract has existed for countless millenia.

Your claim for entitlement of official ceremony for the purpose of masturbating in someone's rectum lacks both basis in law and historical precedence.

By all means, you may pleasure yourself in this respect with as many men as you like. And suffer the disease-related and structural damage consequences of this act.

"more than a third of those surveyed now guessing that more than 25 percent of Americans are gay or lesbian" hardly surprising if your media is awash with perversion as ours in UK.

Our supposedly conservative led government is about to pass a law pretending that same sex couples can 'marry', they might just as well legislate that the sun is blue.
