Islandscout,

I hear what you are saying about the numbers of unemployment here vs. the general population. Something to keep in mind is that this thread started in 11/2010 and that is no doubt when most people answered the poll.

Also, I wonder if stats would show that there is a high percentage of nonworkers who go online than workers, simply due to available time.

However, I do know that I have read that "lesbians" have a greater unemployment rate than heterosexual women, which may at least be partially to the gender presentation of us butches. I dunno.

ETA: All I know is that I have always felt fortunate to be in mental health. Being gay is more accepted...or rather, you look like a jackass if you verbalize having a problem with gay people. It is still ok to be grossed out by trans people in some mental health circles, however.
