I wonder what % of priests are “gay”?

I have a R.C. B-I-L and he seems to think the percentage is high

Two articles take a stab at the percentage.

NewMore from Star Tribune (Minnepolis)

Gay rights groups hailed a “seismic shift” by the Catholic Church toward gays on Monday after bishops said homosexuals had gifts to offer the church and that their partnerships, while morally problematic, provided homosexuals with “precious” support.

In a preliminary report half-way through a Vatican meeting on family life, the bishops also said the church must recognize the “positive” aspects of civil unions and even Catholics who cohabitate, with the aim of bringing them to a lifelong commitment in a church wedding.
