目的:评估纯异性恋、大部分异性恋和双性恋吸引力的男性和女性在性健康方面的差异。方法:对597名年轻人进行匿名在线调查(394名女性,203名男性;平均年龄= 20.04)使用经验证的问卷评估了性吸引力、欲望、性功能和性满意度的模式。大多数异性恋的吸引力的个人报告显着较高的孤独的性欲比完全异性恋的个人(女性:D= 0.64;男性:D= 0.68)。伴侣的性欲在两组之间没有差异。完全异性恋的吸引力的妇女报告显着较高的性功能和满意度比大多数异性恋或双性恋吸引的妇女(功能:D= 0.29;满意度:D= 0.47)。大多是异性恋的吸引力的男性报告显着降低性功能比完全异性恋或双性恋吸引的男子(d= 0.40)。结论:有显着差异之间完全与大多是异性恋的个人在几个方面的性健康,支持的断言,大多是异性恋可能构成一个独特的取向。结合先前的研究显示双性恋女性性功能障碍的发生率较高,这些发现突出了非单性恋女性之间的性健康差异。支持性少数群体的性健康的努力应包括考虑大多数异性恋者,因为这一人群可能有独特的性健康需求。
Objective: To assess differences in sexual wellbeing among men and women with exclusively heterosexual, mostly heterosexual, and bisexual attractions.Method: An anonymous online survey in a convenience sample of 597 young adults (394 women, 203 men; average age = 20.04) assessed patterns of sexual attraction, desire, sexual functioning, and sexual satisfaction using validated questionnaires.Results: Individuals with mostly heterosexual attractions reported significantly higher solitary sexual desire than exclusively heterosexual individuals (women:d= 0.64; men:d= 0.68). Partnered sexual desire did not differ between groups. Women with exclusively heterosexual attractions reported significantly higher sexual functioning and satisfaction than either mostly heterosexual or bisexually attracted women (functioning:d= 0.29; satisfaction:d= 0.47). Men with mostly heterosexual attractions reported significantly lower sexual functioning than either exclusively heterosexual or bisexually attracted men (d= 0.40).Conclusions: There were significant differences between exclusively vs. mostly heterosexual individuals in several aspects of sexual wellbeing, supporting the assertion that mostly heterosexual may constitute a distinct orientation. Taken together with prior research showing higher rates of sexual dysfunction in bisexual women, these findings highlight sexual health disparities among nonmonosexual women. Efforts to support the sexual wellbeing of sexual minority individuals should include consideration of mostly heterosexual individuals, as this population may have unique sexual health needs.
