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?
