Sexual identity UK


Found an article on the subject in Magazine article thought I would give my 2 pence worth

Sexual identity UK | More young people identify as bisexual than gay or lesbian
Age group
Identified as bi (%)
Identified as gay (%)
16–24
1.8
1.5
25–34
0.9
1.8
35–49
0.4
1.3
50–64
0.4
1.0
65+
0.3
0.3
Over all there are 1.06% Gay 0.7% Bisexuals This surprises people because of the Influence the Gay Community has over the media, entertainment industry when asked most people thought and quoted up to 20% of the population.
What interested me was the older the group got the less chance of them having abnormal sexual preferences. So why is that? Could it be the processed food eaten today by younger people? Scientists have suggested that what we eat can affect what we are especially the chemicals used in food and the production of food? Could it be our environment generally? Could it be youth culture that encourages Young People to experiment, an example of this is the Drug culture among Young People where they think they should experiment? Could it seen as the in thing to be Gay etc? Could it be we are becoming a more Secular Hedonistic society where ones own pleasure supersedes everything else? One thing is for sure the gap between Young and Old is wider then it has ever been BUT the real question will be do the young change attitudes, as they get older?
