Heat Map

When I first saw this "Heat Map" I'm thinking this is bullshit, how could they ever determine that with any kind of accuracy? What are they mind readers?



So looking at the source it's OKtrends which is "Dating Research from OkCupid". Now I don't know how seriously I can take OKcupid for reliable information. They do have millions (really) of data points, maybe half are from tracking customers, but the rest are from what people tell them on questionnaires. Are people "lookin' for love" likely to be honest on a dating site? Who knows, but what they came up with for comparisons between the traits and habits of straights vs queers is pretty interesting.

First of all, gay sexuality is not a threat.
Straight people have gay sex, too.
Beyond Sex: Gay & Straight Personalities.
I think it's worth reading.
