The US Census does not collect data on sexuality; however, according to a recent study by the Williams Institute at the University of California, 11% of the adult population has engaged in same-sex sexual behavior, but only 3.5% of the population identifies as being lesbian, gay, or bi-sexual.
As homosexuals are still persecuted in the United States, it is likely that most of the 11% who engaged in same-sex sexual behavior are gay or bisexual but have chosen to not identify as homosexual in order to conform to cultural pressure.
For this reason, it is likely that about 1 out of 10 people are gay, lesbian, or bisexual.
Dr Alfred Kinsey's reports show that 1 in 10 people are gay. That means 10% of the population are gay.

Well, 5-10% of any army will be gay--the question is only whether the gay people are allowed to be open about it. Many armies allow openly gay people to serve, e.g. Israel.
about 10% of people are gay in every culture if you want to include bisexuals pansexuals ect. it gets to about 50% :)

Research by Dr Alfred Kinsey shows that 10% of people around the world are gay. This means that as a fraction, 1/10 (1 in 10 people) are gay.
Taking into account the "10% theory" as developed by Dr Alfred Kinsey, there are around 450,000 gay people in New Zealand. This is 10% of the New Zealand population (4.5 million people).
Gay Jacobsen D'Asaro was born on 1954-10-07.
José Aurelio Gay was born on 1965-12-10.
The same percentage as that of the general population -- roughly 1 to 10 percent, depending on exactly how you define"gay."
Yes, they can. Most studies show that gay people were decided that way before they were born. Between 5 and 10 percent of the world is gay, which is a very large number of people. That means in a school of 100 children, maybe 6 or 7 or 8 of them are gay. They may not realize it till they are older, but they were gay since they were born, probably.
A gay person can come from anywhere in the world, they have a mother, and a father just like everyone elsePeople are born gay or straight (it is not a choice), or bisexual. The existence of bisexuality seems to confuse some people into thinking it's a choice, when in fact sexual orientation is not--it's just the way people are born. About 5-10% of all people are gay.
