Out of that number, 3 billion men and 3 billion women are over the age of 18, which means bi guys who want to partner with women, straight or otherwise, have 20% of 3 billion women to choose from.

Even though the pool from which gay men draw our potential partners shrinks at twice the rate yours does. Every time a gay couple gets its wings, two men are removed from our much smaller pool. 60 million. That's the population of France.

Wrote in to correct me. Thank you.
