Do homosexuals contribute to the hipster population more than heterosexual?

By percent not by count.

 

[IndyColtsFan]

Poll?

Poll?

Don't you mean "pole":whiste:

 

[XX55XX]

Well, homosexuals are usually more liberal...

 

[SlitheryDee]

I'm still not 100% clear on what a hipster is. Do they wear fabulous boots?

 

[Oil]

If you're trying too hard to be a hipster then you're not a hipster

 

[Capt Caveman]

Is the OP thinking of going homo to be a hipster?

 

[BoomerD]

Do they actually contribute to anything?

 

[herm0016]

i like to think of them as asexual, because they all look like 12 yo boys.

 

[MotF Bane]

I tend to think not. They may give such appearances with ridiculous hairstyles, tightly fitted clothing, but that's probably just to garner attention from female hipsters. And as for the females, again, I rather doubt it.

Near as I can tell a hipster is anyone who doesn't look like they work in a cube farm, and whose political opinion is something other than social conservative, or corporation centered. It's a label cogs like to use against those that resist being part of the machine.

 

[ThatsABigOne]

Yes

 

[Zargon]

I thought hipster/metro was what you did when you werent sure you could come out of the closet yet? like homosexual-lite?

but seriously......maybe? so hard to tell.

 

[waggy]

i have to admit when i see a hipster i tend to think they are wanna be gays or not out of the closet yet.

 

[Gothgar]

Yup

Resisting being part of the machine by buying everything Apple sells?

I think it is the exact opposite.

Hipsters were gay before it was cool.

 

[AstroManLuca]

I think it's obvious that the percentage of gay people who are hipsters is much larger than the percentage of gay people in the general population.

But it seems your poll question is asking whether a MAJORITY of hipsters (>50%) are gay, and to that I would say no. Probably closer to 20-30%. Way higher than in the general population, but not a majority.

those would be the same thing.

what you're trying to ask is is the homosexual population represented in the hipster population at a greater percentage than its makeup of the general population.

and to that, my answer is i don't know.

 

[zinfamous]

no, but hipsters and their love for Apple (and their saint Jobs) contribute to the world's stupidity quotient.

Yes. Thanks for clearing that up.

I'm just talking about how the label's applied. I don't think there's any such thing as a hipster. People around here use it to describe "someone that doesn't look like me".

Hipsters are as definable, real, and truly fascinating as are Eskimos.

Just go to Portland.
