    As a market economist i see no problem in extrapolating that into the next gen. Should be upwards of 70℅ funky folks by then, if my powers of guesstimating are correct. That’s a logarithmic curve if ever I saw one.

      J’aime l’ironie sur le nom de la génération (lie a autre chose) et le fait qu’elle était également en quasi impossibilité sociale de faire un coming out / obligé de réprimer sa nature.

        Basic historical facts? (US history) Regan ignored AIDS because it was thought to be a gay disease and it wiped out a whole generation of people.

          Just checking that your one line comment wasn’t meant to be triggering. It’s hard to tell in LGBT communities these days.

            What an odd interaction this is.

            I’m commenting because the chart is devoid of meaning without the relevant facts. Statistics mean nothing out of context.

            This post would be better with context so i provided some

              Maybe you don’t see how your comment could have been interpreted in ambiguous ways on such a triggering topics (AIDS). But please, don’t blame me for asking a little more context of you. Your first comment would have been great with the part you added after I asked you to elaborate. I didn’t downvote it by the way.
