Most people haven't actually written what they are. Few of those who aren't LGBT write about it, probably because it's what people assume by default.
But yes in EE there's a lot of LGBT, but it's mostly the bisexual group it seems. To say whether it's a coincidence or statistically probable we need to know both the percentage of people who are it irl, and in the forum. I don't think we know either very well, especially not on the forum. But irl that percentage could also be higher than most people realize, as some people, especially bisexuals, go on to just live a quiet 'heterosexual' (or just single) life in the closet.

My interpretation is that we're just liberated.
And bias from the fact that most people haven't written about what they are and therefore getting discarded from the consideration.

i think LGBT is a lot more common than people think it is, but it could be a bias of who says things about themselves...

My interpretation is that it's a large coincidence that the original and steady core of USF users (atomic, bla, blotz, me, vh, naru, smj, matty, fiah, yqt, others i think i'm forgetting) have about 1/3 LGBT compared to normal perhaps 1/10.

Gay is not about gender. it's about sexuality.

Lesbian, gay and bisexual aren't genders, no, they just mean who you can be attracted to.

What is this I don't even.

Many of those terms have identical meaning (ie FTM and transmale), and it only includes genders.

Sexuality and gender are completely different concepts. One is what people you find attractive, and the other is your internal state of what body you feel the most comfortable in (idk someone else can probably explain gender better)

Yeah almost every one starting with the letter "T" are the same. I think that's for people who like some terms better than others.

Gender=What sex organ(s) you have
Sexuality=What you present yourself as

Sorry for mixing them up.

sex = what's between your legs
gender = what's between your ears
sexuality = who you're into (or not at all)

okay.




Christianity:

>Love everyone
>Kill all the gays

What is this I don't even

If the Church is made of sinners and gay is a sin then why do Christians hate it.

*cries in a corner*

Btw I'm Straight and I think that sex, gender and sexual orientation make no difference in a person
What makes the difference is the skin color personality and yeah
