Mississippi is actually the gayest of them all. They're just in deep denial, like Ted Haggard and that bathroom stall foot-tapping Congressman.

Yeah, and look at the sharp distinction from Mississippi to Louisiana. Because, once you cross state lines anywhere, the social mores change drastically!

Like, when you cross from Ohio into Kentucky, it's like landing in Oz from Kansas. It's completely different: you would think that state line wouldn't mean so much, but just look at this map for proof.

(Only thing I can figure is they asked county (or parish) by county (or parish) using the later mentioned "incredible power of computers."

Here's what they say:

Using the incredible power of computers, we were able to break down this question geographically. Here are straight people who either have had or would like to have a same-sex experience in the continental U.S. and lower Canada. You can see some sharp geographic divides.
It's those sharp geographic divides that makes this seem all the more bogus.

Well look at Indiana, the Ohio river didn't keep out those Kentucky people one bit (one of the reasons we are sometimes called Hoosiertucky). Why did it work for Ohio?

Sorry Grav...

Really though, look at how Indiana is so different from Illinois and Ohio on that map. The same is true with the red state/blue state maps too.
