Is it true that within bodybuilders , boxers & wrestlers exists more gay men than in other sports or other people .... I think it`s so because I`ve seen so .

Well since there is a high degree among gay men to be narcissistic and bodybuilders to be narcissistic that would make sense. As for boxer (the feeling of beating men) and wrestlers (winning through dominating physically another man or being dominated) I guess that makes sense. However, I have never heard type of study that demonstrating any of that to be true. I am using stereotyping to explain it - not any fact. I would say in general its more likely that a professional athelete or actor is likely to be gay over the averge male. However since most factually studies put the homosexual population at 2 percent and I believe the total population who as ever engaged in a homosexual act at around 7-8 percent, we are mostlikely dealing with a very low percentage of the total number of bodybuilders, boxers, and/or wrestlers (even if its as high as 15% it would be so low to make it insignification to the total population in those areas that are hetero).
So what is the point of this question unless you have some actual data?

There are gay men all over the place including in these fields. My experience has been that there are a far larger number of gay people in every sub group than anyone would guess.

I believe that it can happen... Some bodybuilders get obsessed with how they look and they like what they see in the mirror. Now i think that in some weird way it may lead to them being attracted to some1 that's also bulked up like them.

Womens softball, tennis, & volleyball top the list for gals but gay guys seem to be more into the beauty trade: hair dressers, makeup artists, and etc. then sports.

I think that many gays, with the chance of seeing other men in tight outfits, with many muscles, get a subscription to a gym in order to see them... so this is why it happens.
