Ok then according to BB 30% of people are either gay or bi.

That can't be right.

You need to realise that the BB producers dont have a remit to represent society as a whole

This is a common mistake people make when they complain, theres too many gays, not enough Irish, too many blacks, no asians...

The production team pick the people they feel like picking as a result of the seletion process.

there is no rule, as far as i am aware that the producers have to pick equal numbers from every race and social group, or accuratley represent the percentages of gay/straight/whatever in society.

Ohhhh, yes. I totally agree. I'm fed up with girls who think that they are bi-sexual just cos they drunkenly snog their mate in a nightclub after copious amounts of alcohol.

IMHO it's seen to be 'cool' to claim that you are bi these days (females, that is). I'm sure most of these ladies would run a mile if confronted by a full on same sex experience.

Damn right ... & nothing wrong with any of it, just so long as I get to watch the video ... I'll be happy enough, even if they "come to their senses" before strapping on the 12" ...

... jeeeze, how lame it all is ... "Sam claims to have worn out 5 vibrators before entering the Hice, that's why she hasn't taken one in with her" ... er, HELLO! ... just get to Anne Summers & buy a new one if you're such a wanton hottie ... or send your Endemol minion instead ... stop beating about the bush & start beating about the bush, if you take my meaning ...

... as it is, I take Sam for another tiresome Shell ... all mouth, no trousers, except for the odd strategic flash of snatch when it suits her purposes ... she's modern© enough for that ... I'm almost dying of boredom already ...

The true gay rate has been changing over the last few decades, the 10% statistic is based on the 70s political correctness policies. Society is much more open minded now a days and people are free to be openly “gay” if they so wish, thus the gay rate might never have changed BUT because more people admit it there is no reason that it cant have increased to 20% or 30%, it all boils down to where your sample comes from and if its representative of society as a whole.

As for being not “natural” that’s absurd, the only way being gay could be called "unnatural" is if people were "made" gay by altering genes or babies environments on purpose, i.e. genetic engineering.

Your watching a program that is based on a post modernist idea and yet you complain about the gay people in the house, what the heck did you expect?

One of these days attitudes like that are going to go the same way as the dinosaurs. Homosexuality occurs in nature therefore it's natural.

Some of the gay people have been the most sensible in the house over the years although a lot of the applicants do try to say they are gay to make out they are going to be over the top and crazy and watchable.

You may be right with the present way they do things but not if BB showed some intelligence.

Hold my hand and I'll take you on a guided tour of various demographic studies detailed by the Kinsey institute:

Laumann et al (1994) found that 9% of men and 4% of women reported having engaged in at least one same-gender sexual activity since puberty. Given the identity category choices of heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, or something else, 2.8% of men and 1.4% of women surveyed reported "some level of homosexual identity."

Gonsierek et al (1995) reviewed the literature and critiqued surveys of homosexual activity from Kinsey in 1948 to the 1994 study by Laumann, et al. Because of the possible risks involved in self-disclosure, it is posited that the recurrent 2-5% for same-gender sexual behavior in the studies reviewed represents a minimum figure. They suggest that the current prevalence of predominant same-sex orientation is 4-17%.

Sells et al (1995) reported 6.2% of males and 3.6% of females with "sexual contact with someone of the same sex only or with both sexes in the previous five years," and 20.8% of U.S. males and 17.8% of U.S. females with some homosexual behavior or some homosexual attraction since age 15

and then finally a telephone survey (strange, I know but only in Australia eh? )

Men
Gay - 1.6%
Bisexual - 0.9%
Same-sex attraction experience/attraction - 8.6%

Women
Gay - 0.8%
Bisexual - 1.4%
Same-sex attraction experience/attraction - 15.1%

The premise of your question falls because alot of people do not like being labelled as gay, straight, bisexual or whatever. Why is there a constant need to pigeon hole people so they conform to society's strictures?

10% of humans are homosexual - how is that not normal.

You'll be saying next that having big tits isn't natural.

Nature loves variation! It does it all the time in nature, NATURALLY. That's how thing evolve! Without it, we would all still be swimming in the pool of life.

Show me someone who says that what I turned out to be with no choice or intervention on my part, and I'll show you a prat.

Sadly, Prats occur naturally as well and the percentage of them is VERY high.

If Craig is not gay then he is really a woman who dresses as a man and fancies men. Therefore technically he's not gay.

Would explain the man-breasts too.

Of course they would be. "what I turned out to be with no choice or intervention on my part" makes no sense at all!
