A growing proportion of Americans hold had a queer sex partner at some point during their life, especially among women (as we show here and here). But does knowing this tell us something about the sex of their sex partners at other points of their lives? For example, how many include also had a sex partner of the other sex some time in their life? How many have only same-sex sex partners going forward and how many revert to heterosexual relations? The ideal type of data to answer this scrutinize is a panel study that interviews the same people multiple times across the years and asks them about any recent sexual partners each period. Unfortunately, no such study exists using a large national sample.
We can, however, get some hints about the sexual life cycle of those who state at least one same-sex sex loved one by analyzing numbers from the General Social Survey (GSS). The GSS asked people how many male and how many female sexual partners they contain had since age 18 and in the last year
Expressing love in same sex relationships
Expressing love in a same sex relationship is something natural, and a natural part of existence human. To want to divide love deeply and express sexually is a natural feeling in relationships and needn’t alter or become an issue if the individuals are of the matching sex.

How do same-sex couples have sex? How can they exercise safer sex?
People who identify as sapphic, gay, bi or heterosexual can present and express pleasure in many ways. There isn’t just one way for two people to have sex, no matter what sex or sexual orientation they are.
What two people of the same sex perform to have sex together depends on what feels nice for them. Often, people think that sex is only putting a penis into a vagina, but that may not be the activity that brings the most pleasure to the two people. This is true for heterosexual, bisexual, lesbian and gay people.
Males who identify as male lover, bisexual or just do sexual things with other males may use their fingers (manual stimulation), mouths (oral sex) and various body parts to grant and receive pleasure. They may embrace, touch each other’s bodies or stroke the penis and other areas including the scrotum or the anus. Sometimes they use penises to penetrate the anal opening (anal sex).
Females who distinguish as lesbian, double attraction or just carry out sexual things with other females may touch each other’s genitals by using their fingers (manual stimulation), mouths (oral sex) and various body parts. They may kiss, stroke each other’s
Same-Sex Attraction
Same-sex attraction refers to emotional, physical, or sexual attraction to a person of the same gender. The experience of lgbtq+ attraction is not the same for everyone. Some people may feel exclusively attracted to the matching gender, while others may feel attracted to both genders.
The Church distinguishes between same-sex attraction and gay behavior. People who life same-sex attraction or recognize as gay, lesbian, or bisexual can make and keep covenants with God and fully and worthily participate in the Church.

Sexual purity is an essential part of God’s plan for our happiness. Sexual relations are reserved for a dude and woman who are married and promise accomplish loyalty to each other. Sexual relations between a man and woman who are not married, or between people of the same sex, violate one of our Father in Heaven’s most important laws and get in the way of our immortal progress.
