Statistics? <10% of the population identifies as LGBTQ+ today, if your only evidence is two dudes hugging then not gay lovers is much more likely to be correct.
You mean that after thousands of years of repression, with still today strong religious antagonism, and annihilation of culturally significant LGBTQ elements in colonized countries, the LGBTQ community is low? Yeah, no shit.
None of those factors were present back when the Vesivius errupted in 79BC though, so our contemporary low % is perfectly irrelevant
Yeah, there’s absolutely no reason to think that over 50% of the population was attracted to the same sex at any point in history, your comment is pure speculation based on hand wavy nonsense. The only data we can actually point to is current day statistics, which, even in demographics where LGBTQ is normalized, is way under 50%.
Do you really think natural human attraction can be “annihilated” by religion and colonization? That’s ridiculous and frankly offensive to LGBTQ folks who were born that way.
