    The first thing you need to learn is to read the report accurately.

    More admit that they identify as LGBT on a survey. That doesn't there are more. Just more admit it. That could be cultural. Blacks have always been more accepting of differences.

    The big exception is the black evangelical community. As with most RW religious people these days, they are not accepting of differences.

    I think if what the OP is trying to say that there are LGBT minorities I don’t know if that’s true. But LGBT tend to be poor and need social services for help, and so have more opportunities to mix with racial minorities. More flow of people, more flow of ideas.

    No. Your OP misinterpreted the poll as well as the context that post #2 makes clear. You are trying to fit a square peg into a round hole but failing.

    Maybe you are asking the wrong question. Just looking at the data as presented by Huffpost we have Blacks at 4.6%, Asians at 4.3% and Hispanics at 4.0% and Caucasians at 3.2%. It seems to me the outlier in these results are the Caucasians. The others are grouped around 4.3% and could be essentially the same once we take in account the margin of error. You should be wondering why Caucasians are different than the rest, not why minorities are different from the outlier group.

    I’ve often wondered if it may be natures way of ending a bad genetic code.

    Normally in statistics you are interested in why the outlier group is different. In this case the 3 or the 4 groups are centered around the mean. The forth group is the outlier.

    The way you asked the question is only a subtle difference but a lot can be read into it. When you ask why the other three groups are different people will look for answer within the three groups whereas the better approach may be to determine what is the difference in the outlier group because even though those 3 other groups are quite different culturally, upbringing etc BUT they all land around the same number. So whatever differences they have they still seem to be the same with regards to sexual orientation. It would be more strategic to examine why the forth group is different.

    If you do not believe there is a difference in the framing look at the answers you will get from the respondents. More will probably take the lead of you question and formulate answers around why the minority groups are different. You have established through your question the outlier is the norm and the approach is to determine why the other 3 groups are different.

    Your usual racist spin, but tell me since you are something of a racist expert, if this is racist....
    My theory is they have more lesbians. Female homosexuality is better tolerated and easier to keep hidden than male homosexuality, also there is the aspect of finding a life partner (or date). If there is low probability of finding a suitable match in the opposite sex and many more choices in the same sex, someone on the fence, might choose to dismount. I don't believe men are that "fluid".

    I think that theory is just as crazy as mine. Neither can be proven. But it’s hardly racism. I think the same for white homosexuals but you can think of me as you want. Your opinion means very little to me (as in nothing)

    Why do minorities own more gays? I had no idea they were...

    Why are minorities gay?

    Because they want to be.

    Maybe they are just more honest about who they are.

    You need to add an option that says "I do not care".

    It doesn't matter why people are homosexual. Whether it is a choice or biological or a combination of both should have no impact on anything.
