So, I haven't logged in in nearly three years, and before that, I was averaging one log-in a year, so I guess I should introduce myself to the new generations. My name's Federico, but here, I was universally known as Fred. I hail from the faraway meadows and beaches of Uruguay; I'll let you guess where those are (hint: not in Eastern Europe.) When I joined back in early 2007 I was 17 years old, that makes me about as old as Methuselah by now. Back then I was a senior in high school; by now I'm still going to college after a three-year impasse (materials science, if you'd ask) while working as a graphic designer. Just had a look at the "Forum Staff" and I know exactly one person there -- he probably knows who he is... haha. Well, hi then
Of course we had. Sorry to spoil it, but unfortunately, we aren't gayer than the world's average. However, the gayest place in the world relative to its population is Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, which by South American standards is very close to Uruguay...
How exactly do they measure that? You would think any statistics would be heavily influenced by nonresponse bias. Maybe the people in Rio are just more honest? Anyway, hi. Must be weird to introduce yourself after being here for so long...
In Rio, if you randomly asked (male) strangers about their sexual orientation, about one in five would answer non-straight...
