Q & A Round
Q. 2
My next question relates to the alarming mental health statistics you posted in relation the homosexual minority and your argument about the degree to which so-called Marriage Equality may help to alleviate the enormous stigma which you and the SSM lobby frequently allude to.
It’s a simple multiple choice question
Much of the literature I have read indicates that many gay people feel so stigmatized that they would give anything to be “straight” if they thought they could change, so in your estimation, what percentage of people who define themselves as “gay” specifically (as opposed to bisexual) would rather be “straight”?
A. Less than 25%
B. Between 25% and 50%
C. Between 50% and 75%
D. Over 75%
NB. Readers should acknowledge that this question merely asks for Crocodile Gandhi’s estimate.
