Sexual Identity, Attractions, and Behavior among Young Sexual-Minority Women over a 2-Year Period.
Diamond, Lisa M.
Developmental Psychology, v36 n2 p241-50 Mar 2000
Examined sexual identities, attractions, and behaviors of sexual-minority women in 2-year follow-up of women first interviewed at 16-23 years. Found half the participants had changed sexual-minority orientations more than once; one- third changed identities since the first interview. Found changes in sexual attractions were larger among bisexuals and unlabeled women, and most women pursued sexual behavior consistent with their attractions. (Author/KB)
