Sexual fantasies study: Women have their kinky bi thoughts, too

Fewer women than men have bisexual fantasies according to a study of young people that will soon be published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine.

Going from two to more than three same-sex sex partners exhibits a decline in prevalence in women (from 36.9% to 24.7%); in men the drop-off was much sharper going from sex with two men to sex with more than three men (from 45.2% to 13.1%). continue reading…

Yet she desired women, had affairs with them, and worried that she might be lesbian by nature.”
