Abstract
This article addresses some of the issues raised in the article ''Mark eting to the Homosexual (Gay) Market: A Profile and Strategy Implicati ons.'' Strategic segmentation theory and practice suggest that segment s should be based on consumers' responses or behaviors in relation to the marketer's product, thus calling into question the existence of a supposedly homogenous homosexual segment and the resultant profile of the average person in that segment,
