This stereotype may lead some teachers to think they have no lesbians or gays in their classes. Any animal, including a human, is capable of responding to homosexual stimuli. Research suggests that homosexuality is almost universal among all animals and is especially frequent among highly developed species. There has been evidence of homosexuality in all human cultures throughout history. Homosexuals are predominately white males.
Homosexuality exists worldwide.
People can choose to be homosexual or straight. It is generally accepted that there is some sort of predisposition or genetic relationship involved, but not everyone agrees with this analysis. Statistics show that the majority of lesbian, bisexual, and gay people do not see any reason to change. Some, however, have found that accepting their sexual orientation is difficult, given the prejudice that lesbians, bisexuals, and gay people have to deal with. We don't know how many gays, lesbians, or bisexual people there are in the general population.
