  Actually, there have been stories about Abe Lincoln for years.

    Isn’t the stat for any population something like 10%? So it would likely be more than just him.

      That 10% thing was made up by someone in the dark 80s, and it just happened to spread afterwards. tbh I don’t think anyone ever counted gayness scientifically and I’m not sure if it’s even possible.

      You can’t project the % of gay people in the whole population onto the people in the position of president. Less then 2% of all US presidents werd black for example. Or maybe an even more obvious example, there haven’t been 23 female presidents.

    Lincoln was a republican right?

      Lincoln was a champion wrestler, so I’d be careful making jokes.
