The study makes some discrepancies statistically tangible for the first time: for example, about ten percent of gay men have had sex with a woman in the last three months. About 6 percent were "hidden homosexuals", who saw themselves as homosexual, but had sex only with women and were often married.
The study director is Prof. First sexual encounter at 18 The men had their first sexual encounters at the age of 18 β with women β regardless of their current sexual orientation. Only two years later, on average, some had sexual contact with men and here, too, regardless of their orientation in the study.
The study director explains this as follows: "This is probably the result of a discovery phase in which different sexual orientations are tried out. One in ten homosexual men had had intercourse with women in the past three months. Similar studies from Australia, Belgium or the USA had not yet identified this deviation from sexual orientation and sexual behavior. About one-third of bisexual men and just under half of homosexual men were significantly more active sexually: they had had more than 30 different sexual partners.
At the age of 45, over three-quarters of heterosexual men had been with their partners between five and ten years, and over half of homosexual and bisexual men were also in a stable and long-term relationship. Around 70 percent of heterosexual men were married, 80 percent had become fathers. Homosexual men with wife and children Noticeable discrepancies between stated sexual orientation and lived sexuality were especially evident among homosexuals. There is evidence that such a discrepancy can lead to mental health problems.
Our study provides important data to further explore this phenomenon," says Prof. Herkommer and adds: "Other studies have already indicated that this group exists, but we have now demonstrated it scientifically for the first time.
