It's easy to see how some people perceive that homosexuality propogates through society. With each year that passes the gay population becomes more visible - we see more openly gay people in the street; more friends and family members come out to us; more positive gay images are broadcast to us via television and other media.

Fact is, the gay population is no more substantial now than it has ever been, but more gay people are coming out than has ever been the case. The more people come out, the more confidence repressed homosexuals will have to do likewise. Eventually most gay people will feel no need to hide or repress their sexuality and the "propogation" will be over. I'd like to think that time isn't so distant.

I'd come out myself, but I'm far too busy developing MP3 players.
