The extent to which a gay Latino man participates in the gay world depends on his

A) degree of acculturation.
B) degree of self-respect.
C) ethical values.
D) religion.

The level of integration into the dominant culture can affect a gay Latino man's willingness to participate in the gay world. Those who are more acculturated have greater exposure to and acceptance of mainstream LGBTQ+ culture, which may make it easier for them to participate. On the other hand, those who are less acculturated may have greater ties to traditional cultural values, making it more difficult for them to participate. Therefore, the degree of acculturation is the best choice for this question.
