It's not at all strange, for the researchers. If there's too little data, there's nothing to be done. But maybe it's strange that there are so few profiles by non-white homosexuals. It's a cultural thing, I suspect.

Well, if you don't have enough data for the experiment you want to make, then you don't make the experiment.

Not make the experiment and then note that "btw, don't call us out on our poor data, it's not our fault, we tried our best".

Especially so if you're perfectly aware of how controversial your study may be considered.
