Why More Lesbians (Might) Live in Rural Communities than Gay Men | TBridges @ Inequality by (Interior) Design
The finding that LGBT individuals are not evenly distributed throughout the U.S. is probably not that surprising. But the “where,” “how” and “why” are wonderfully rich questions as sociologists are interested in how people make choices within systems of structured constraint. When individuals and groups all start making the same or really similar decisions, sociologists get interested in the kinds of social and cultural forces at work helping them come to—or providing a framework for—those decisions.
