Résumé
Greater clarification is needed about the differences between gay and bisexual men's health issues. With data from a pan-Canadian online survey, bisexual (n = 564) and gay men (n = 1,109) were compared on 32 different psychological, social, and sexual self-perceived problems that they might have encountered over the past 12 months. Clear patterns emerged. Relative to gay men, bisexual men had significantly higher adjusted odds of different sexual orientation or identity problems and certain health behaviour problems but significantly lower odds of several mental health and HIV/STI-related problems.
