I know we need mental issue awareness but that is what commercials are for. They need to lower that number a lot closer to 0% so us normal people actually have some shows to watch.

And they wonder why TV ratings are down
When there's less shows on TV that the majority of people want to watch because everything has been infested with SJW shite, its just going to give more people reason to cut the cord then get a-la-carte streaming subscriptions for content providers that are still putting out decent shows instead of being forced to get channels putting out crap because its part of a cable package.

IMO the new Battle of Midway movie would be greatly improved if there were some tranny sex in it. Very important for society to see that.

I’m surprised that Spike Lee wasn’t out there complaining about the lack of black sailors and flyers in the film.

He tries that shite for Flags Of Our Fathers and Letters From Iwo Jima and Clint called him out over it considering the total lack of black sailors and soldiers involved at Iwo.

Can we just put them all on one show? And put it on the CW? Just have one show where everybody's got the gay. Except for the token straight guy put in for them to make fun of.

I am told their sexuality is nothing more than what two consenting adults choose to do in the privacy of their bedroom.


The problem is they want to take what they do in their bedrooms and force it into YOUR living room.

Wait. So hiring someone based on their sexual orientation isn’t discrimination?

They’re going to annoy the public with this, and in the process risk the tolerance and acceptance they’ve gained.


You've fallen into the trap.

Tolerance =/= acceptance

As former Filth, that is what it means.

There is no tolerance from this group once they make a "request". Either it is honored, or they destroy anyone who gets in the way.

That's a big ask, given they're less than 5% of the population.

They're easily less than 1%, and the trans are barely accountable. They've been over-representing their numbers for years.

I agree with the 4-5% figure, why do you think those numbers are off?

If 5% of humanity was gay, it would have been a lot more prominent a lot longer ago.

I've lived in several places. Nowhere I've ever been would I say that 5% of people were gay, not even on the west coast.

Americans Have No Idea How Few Gay People There Are

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.
