This phrase is only used by those who oppose gay rights. It refers to the perception that gay people have designed and are carrying out a specific plan to force the rest of society to view them as normal or acceptable. There is some underlying truth to that; gay people do want and deserve equality.
In general terms, gay people (and straight people) strive for equality in many different ways, and it is true that they are seeking to discard the old view that they are sinful or mentally ill, but there is no agenda.
The opponents of gay equality are seeing cultural changes and labeling them as an agenda.

TaigaThe term "homosexual agenda" is a controversial and often derogatory phrase used to describe efforts to promote LGBTQ+ rights and equality, such as marriage equality, anti-discrimination laws, and representation in media. In reality, there is no unified "agenda" and individuals within the LGBTQ+ community have diverse goals and needs.

Are there more gay people in the world or straight people?
Straight -- or at least primarily heterosexual.Research suggests that about 2% to 6% of us are primarily or exclusively homosexual. Something less than 10% of us are primarily or exclusively hexterosexual. That means the rest of us (about 80%) are capable of sex with either men or women -- even if we don't necessarily go through with it.Just to complicate things further, males between puberty and their mid-20's are more likely to experiment with both heterosexual and homosexual sex than older men, maybe as many as 75%! And the majority of adults, at least in the US, have had more than one sexual partner.Still, it appears that most of us eventually settle into long-term heterosexual relationships. So part of the problem is one of definition. If you consider anyone who has everhad a homosexual experience to be gay, there are a lot of us. But if you only count those of us who've been "primarily or exclusively" homosexual for most of our adult lives, fewer than 10% of us are gay.

When someone is late to a meeting or event, it is appropriate to say something like, "Thank you for joining us. We're glad you could make it." It is also polite to express understanding for the delay and to move on with the agenda without dwelling on the lateness.
