    One of the problems with counting gay people is the differences in how it is defined by different people i.e. whether bisexuals count as gay and whether sexual expression is equivalent to sexual identity (e.g. the sterotype of the gay porn star who isn’t gay).

    Although the article supposes that high school students in intolerant states don’t move there is an example in the documentary “Bully” of a high school student who parents move the family to another city to get away from the intolerance.

      True, although they only assume high school students are much less likely to move, which I think is plausible.

      It’s still good to see someone showing their working.
