- notfromhere 5y agoMen (gay or straight) are more outwardly sexual and less selective than women. Seems like a water is wet kind of obvious.
- ksaj 5y agoI think you can get a pretty good idea by counting the bath houses. In Toronto gay bath houses greatly outnumber the only one straight bath house, and there are zero lesbian bath houses. This seems to corroborate your theory.
- nend 5y agoI mean even if what you're suggesting is true, there could be dozens of reasons for that. There's still plenty of places in the US where you'll be discriminated against for being openly gay in public, leaving the relative anonymity of apps more necessary for gay people who want to hook up. You're just again stereotyping gay people and saying they have lots of sex. The point is that these types of stereotypes have been, and are still being used today, to discriminate against gay people. Casually suggesting it's true and using it to explain subsequent actions of gay people, with no data or evidence to back it up, is just going to give more fuel to the sterotyping and discriminating that's going on. Where's the data? Is it just gay people who have lots of sex that are more likely to hold a degree? Does this hold true for straight people? Do I need to have sex 3 times per week to get a college degree or can get by with just one per week? You're just making assumptions about gay people sexual habits.
