Who said they’re hiding?

Something’s lack of representation in media is not exactly a reliable metric of commonality, if it was, gay people sprang into being in the late 90s.

The point being made here is that gay people existed long before it was socially acceptable to be gay, and that the number of ‘out’ gay people goes up as the social acceptability goes up. This would imply that the same population percentage of people are gay, and what changes is the visibility. This is supposed to be an apology for why I don’t many children on leashes.
