It’s mostly bisexuals. You know like Julius Caesar, Alexander of Macedon, and large swaths of people in cultures where same gender romance or sex is acceptable in certain circumstances so long as you also marry and have children.
Not arguing but also something I hadn’t heard before. That there has been an absolutely massive increase in # of people identifying as bi and that that is the majority of LGBTQ+
I can’t recall any off the top of my head and it’s definitely anecdotally been my experience as someone who came out about a decade ago and has been a geek about queer history for about that long. Like there are definitely more homosexuals and a lot more open trans people (but trans people are estimated at absolute highest to be 1% of the population, and more realistic high end estimates last I checked are .3%-.5%), but bi folks have been coming out of the woodwork.
I get your point, but “most”? I’ve had 5 male dogs of my own over 40-ish years, and have known or met many, many others and I’ve never once had my leg humped.
Human appear to be about halfway between chimps and bonobos on the primate spectrum. The violence of chimps combined with the fluid sexual social habits of bonobos lol
28% seems huge, though. Are there any other animals like that? I’m kind of confused how it’s that high even with acceptance lol.

Julius Caesar, described by a contemporary as “Every woman’s man, and every man’s woman”

Most male dogs hump your leg regardless of who you are
Male ducks will even do necrophilia with other males.

The article pointed out that the same sex encounters were only high for females, idk if that’s that similar to humans.
Part acceptance, part widening the net of what’s included in the category.
