Have there always been gays and lesbians?

    Or is it some sort of fashion that currently exists because of the press/media/film,TV attention its gets. I mean the percentage of gays and lesbians today must be greatly higher compared to a century or two ago. A lot of lesbians, for example, are not always truly in love and its just a fad. I mean, a scientist would say the purpose of mating is to reproduce. Since gays and lesbians cannot do this, is there any point to it?

    Read up on Roman history, for one. The Bible would be another.

    By the way, this is not intended to hurt the feelings of gays in any way, if there are any on DP.

    I thinks it's just more acceptable now than it was 20 years ago so people are much more open about it but I don't think the percentages have changed much.

    Like PalSys said, read up on Roman history.

    Prior centuries homosexuals were persecuted, nowadays this fad become a business opportunity, which is advertised widely.
