I guess I should have been more specific; I'm well aware that the sexual identity of members of the fandom diverges from the norm (we covered it at WikiFur News back in 2009), but I haven't seen evidence that such fandom activities as dancing, acting, and fursuiting are primarily the domain of LGBT members (e.g. 25% of fans are primarily homosexual, but they make up 40% of fursuiters). It is an interesting question, though; I will ask Nuka.
… or perhaps you meant that such demographic groups are drawn to the fandom because of the presence of such activities, not that such members are inherently more interested in "creative arts"? Or a little of both?
