Gay Love Fun Facts

9 million gays live in the US and there are 1500 “gay” animal species

Did you know that – according to surveys – at least 9 million LGBT people live in the U.S., which is 3.8 % of the adult population?

Approximately 1 million children in the U.S. are being raised by same-sex couples, and the state with the most gay couples is California, with approximately 92,138 couples. The state with the least gay couples is North Dakota, with approximately 703 couples.

Some scholars have proposed that the first gay couple in history is the ancient Egyptian servants Khnumhotep and Niankhkhnum who lived around 2400 B.C., but homosexuality in the human race is probably as old as humanity itself.

Homosexual behavior has been observed in 1,500 animal species and is most widespread among animals with a complex herd life. The entire species of the dwarf chimpanzee, for example, is in fact bisexual. (From: randomhistory.com)
