There are two things wrong with this:
1. Homo Sapien is the technical term for humans, I thought that was common knowledge.
2. 70% would kick their kid out for being gay?! Wow that's sad.
Do you believe that 70% of Americans don't know that homo sapiens doesn't mean gay? I don't. If this isn't plain fiction, I bet there's some fairly loose mathematics going on.
Do you even know how surveys work?
They don't ask each and everyone, they ask a big number of people, looking for a proportional ratio of people with "x" characteristic actually living on the country and people asked with that same aspect, usually money adquisition, sex, religion or something like that. And then they extrapolate those results saying "this percentage of people thinks this".
Of course is not 100% fucking accurate, but if it's made correctly it's pretty close to reality.
Rage out.
I know how surveys work. This survey is statistically impossible because IF it were real it would be biased. Cluster sampling is inefficient when attempting to compare to a larger group.

How are you supposed to survey everyone then? asking each and everyone in the country?
I may expressed myself poorly there. I'm not saying using only "this people" with x condition. I meant using a big amount of people and use their data comparing it to the percenteage of people similar to them. For example:
20 - men, christians, vote option c
40 - woman, mulisms, vote option a
(with much many groups)
Then, instead of using a percenteage within the group (the woman group there would have "won"), using the percenteage of people on the country with same specifications, and using that percenteage to measure the results.
Valid. If the sample is random and unbiased. The point is that the survey above , if real, was more than likely a cluster sample being used to represent a larger population which is why it's unrealistic. It would be like surveying congress about the economy and making the final result be the American opinion. I use this example because congress and other high income individuals have a hard time truly assessing the financial problems the lower and middle class face because it is a reality they haven't experienced.

Yeah, without the source of survey you just can't know if this is valid or not, or even if it was "legit". I guess we will have to leave this as unknown and laugh at the joke lol
Homo Sapiens, learnt it in grade 5 and used it ever since.
Me: "Guys...I'm a Homo.... Sapien."
Everyone else: *spits out their drinks*
Me: "Well I'm human aren't I? Look
up the definition."
How this made me feel:
1) *roll eyes*
2) *looks away from my phone screen with an expression of disgust*
3) *starts to bang head over and over against a concrete wall*
im not just saying this to say it. I looked it up and nothing except the picture itself came up. yes, homosexuals are ignorant, but this study never happened

*rewrite: show me a country that doesn't have stupidity and bigotry.
