  Which in the U.S. would be perceived to be quite a major issue: https://news.gallup.com/poll/147824/adults-estimate-americans-gay-lesbian.aspx https://news.gallup.com/poll/147824/adults-estimate-american... (This is one of my favorite stats.)

    No doubt due to the fact that LGBTQ characters are dramatically over-represented in US media.

    Likely because of significant overrepresentation in today's media/news. For similar reasons, Americans consistently overestimate blacks and Hispanics' share of the US population. They estimate on average that 33% are black and 29% Hispanic when the true figure is less than 13% for each. <https://np.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/3ncaz8/til_that_americans_consistently_overestimate/ https://np.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/3ncaz8/til_th...>
