- Or it could mean that, in addition to that statistics course, you
- should probably take a basic course in reasoning and logic.

- I've been to quite a few gay bars and other gay spaces in various
- large US cities with large Asian populations. I think you would have
- problems trying *not* to run into large numbers of gay Asians. So many
- that sometimes it's hard to imagine no more than 10% of Asians are gay.
-
- Now, of course that doesn't prove that there aren't fewer Asian gays.
- After all, maybe there *are* fewer Asian gays, and *all* of them
- go out, all the time. (Or we do it with mirrors, or something.)
