Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to describe associations between relationship status, anxiety, and sexual function and satisfaction in lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) adults.

Methods: Linear regression determined associations between sexual function, relationship characteristics and anxiety in 979 LGB participants.

Results: Relationship status was not related to sexual interest in gay men. Partnered relationship status was associated with higher sexual satisfaction for gay men, lesbians, and bisexual women. Anxiety symptoms were negatively associated with sexual interest, satisfaction, and orgasm pleasure for gay men but not associated with sexual outcomes in lesbian women.

Conclusion: Using a nationally representative sample of LGB adults, differences were found in factors related to sexual function and satisfaction by gender and sexual orientation.

女同性恋、男同性恋和双性恋者关系状态、焦虑、性功能和性满意度的关系

摘要目的本研究的目的是描述男女同性恋和双性恋(LGB)成年人的关系状态、焦虑、性功能和满意度之间的关系。方法采用线性回归分析979名LGB参与者的性功能、关系特征与焦虑之间的关系。结果男同性恋者的恋爱状况与性兴趣无关。男同性恋、女同性恋和双性恋女性的伴侣关系状态与更高的性满意度有关。男同性恋者的焦虑症状与性兴趣、性满足和性高潮快感呈负相关，而女同性恋者的焦虑症状与性结局无关。结论在全国具有代表性的LGB成人样本中，发现性别和性取向在性功能和满意度相关因素方面存在差异。

期刊介绍： Biological inorganic chemistry is a growing field of science that embraces the principles of biology and inorganic chemistry and impacts other fields ranging from medicine to the environment. JBIC (Journal of Biological Inorganic Chemistry) seeks to promote this field internationally. The Journal is primarily concerned with advances in understanding the role of metal ions within a biological matrix—be it a protein, DNA/RNA, or a cell, as well as appropriate model studies. Manuscripts describing high-quality original research on the above topics in English are invited for submission to this Journal. The Journal publishes original articles, minireviews, and commentaries on debated issues.
