Why are gay guys so promiscuous
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)–A novel study by a group of University of Chicago researchers reveals a lofty level of promiscuity and unhealthy habit among that city’s homosexual male population.
According to the researchers, 42.9 percent of homosexual men in Chicago’s Shoreland area have had more than 60 sexual partners, while an additional 18.4 percent have had between 31 and 60 partners.

“Sexual promiscuity may be threatening to these people because it provides more temptations for spouses to cheat on one another,” Pinsof said. “On the other hand, for people who are comfortable with women being more economically independent, marrying at a later age and having more sexual partners, sexual promiscuity is not as much of a threat because women do not depend on men for financial support.” The researchers m
