Kinsey Reports had 10% of men and an average of 4% women being homosexual.\nA 1990 study had 13.95% of men and 4.25% of women being homosexual.\nA 1993 study had 9% of men and 5% being homosexual.\n\nJudging by the similarities of these studies, it appears that gay men outnumber lesbians by 2 to 1.

No real answer to your question... the best I could find for you was:\n\nAs of the censusGR2 of 2000, there are 65,269 people, 25,477 households, and 15,591 families residing in the city. The population density is 510.2/km² (1,321.5/mi²). There are 27,640 housing units at an average density of 216.1/km² (559.6/mi²). The racial makeup of the city is 66.63% White, 29.70% African American, 0.26% Native American, 1.28% Asian, 0.04% Pacific Islander, 0.63% from other races, and 1.46% from two or more races. 1.35% of the population are Hispanic or Latino of any races.

Yes, I think so because many people just are in closet! Therefore, statistics are untrue or refer to the people that have claimed their position openly. But in my opinion there are a lot of other gay or bi people in the world around!

You have to give a specific time frame, Asian people are still immigrating to the US.\n\n[Edit]\n"The United States claimed the city on January 30, 1847, during the Mexican-American War. At that point, despite its useful location as a port and naval base, San Francisco was still a small settlement with inhospitable geography. But two years later, the California gold rush brought a wave of migration and immigration, raising the population from 1,000 to 25,000 by December 1849. The railroad, banking, and mining industries became major economic forces in the city.\n\nThe influx of Chinese workers created a sizable Chinatown district, and Chinese Americans remain one of the city's largest ethnic groups. Hostility toward immigrants contributed to lynchings and race riots in the 1850s, and to the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882, which drastically restricted immigration from China until 1943."\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Franciso#History\n\nChinese Exclusion Act http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Exclusion_Act_%28United_States%29

San Francisco is a really cool city with lots of things to do.  The whole Bay Area is beautiful.  There are a few drawbacks though.  First, the cost of living is extremely high, it is one of the most expensive places to live.  Second, it is pretty difficult to find a professional job there, I don't know what you do, but I'd recommend you research job opportunities first.

Assuming that 5% of the population is not-heterosexual, we get 14 million out of the 281 million people living in the United States. That's a very rough estimate, but it works. (The 281 is taken from the last census, the 5% are non-heterosexual is not.)

i come from california and it is  pretty bad. ( i'm not gay either but  i also have some who are) we are constantly using the word "gay" in a negative connotation.  It really doesnt help that the church is really anti-gay.  It mostly depends where you go. Like if you go to San F. then your frinds will fit in.. also in hollywood too.

Sorry.  This is a question that can't be answered.  There are still alot of homosexuals in the closet.

I would say that it depends on what you are looking for (i.e. active nightlife, accepting community, progressive states, etc)  I have lived in Chicago, IL and Atlanta, GA and find that in both areas I had places that were accepting and comfortable and places that were not.  I know that Columbus, OH and Indianapolis, IN have accepting and strong gay communities.  I think that the biggest difference between some place like San Francisco versus a smaller town is the balance between acceptance and judgment or hatred.  In Atlanta, I have to be more aware of where I am or what part of the city  I am in whereas in San Francisco that was much less the case.  Also, many states have passed very restrictive legislation in the last few years, which makes it harder to have benefits, support and rights as a gay couple so it is really important that you look at that too and make sure that you take the necessary steps to protect yourself legally. \n\nHope that helps!  You can also check our www.hrc.org for other resources on states and communities or do a web search for the city you are looking for and the gay community

I am unaware of a usual 5% estimate, but may know where you are getting the figure from. Most studies have shown that the percentage of gay men is 10%, but that only half of those are out of the closet. Due to that, it can be conferred that 5% of men are openly gay. Also, the 1993 Janus study sated the percentage of lesbians was 5%.\n\nThe Kinsey Reports of 1948 and 1953 stated 37% of males and 13% of females had homosexual experiences, but this includes incidental homosexual experience. The study reported 10% of males being more or less exclusively homosexual and 2% to 6% of females being more or less exclusively homosexual.\nA 1990 study (Homosexuality/Heterosexuality by McWhirter, Sanders, and Reinisch) stated 13.95% of males and 4.25% of females had "extensive" or "more than incidental" homosexual experience.\nA 1993 study (The Janus Report on Sexual Behavior) found 9% of men and 5% of women were involved in frequent or ongoing homosexual experiences, but only 4% of men and 2% of women called themselves homosexual. This difference can be attributed as those who were 'out' and those who were 'closeted'.\n\nIt appears that the number of male homosexuals is approximately 10% and the number of female homosexuals is approximately 4%. It also appears that only half of those who are truly homosexual are "out".

I think that, as with basically every other major urban center with a large amount of immigration and close quarters, people in San Francisco, being surrouded by so many different kinds of people, tend to be more accepting of change and more accepting of various practices. Further, the stereotype of San Francisco being liberal led to its fulfillment, as liberal-minded people decided to move there, knowing they would be among people who agree with them.
