        Perhaps I am biased by my environment (living and working
in the Greater Boston area), but it seems like more than 10% of
the male population here is gay.  I can only speculate on the
lesbian proportion.  (This is partly based on an estimation of
Harvard's gay population as ~15%.) Those proportions seem to
apply to programmers as well. 

	Comments are welcomed.
