According to a study by the Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Institute, “bisexual women die, on average, nearly 40% younger than heterosexual women, while homosexual women die 20% sooner.” These tragic numbers should concern all of us, regardless of our attitudes toward lesbianism and bisexuality. If you care about people, you hate to hear this.

As the Daily Mail reports, “The researchers used data from the Nurses’ Health Study II, a cohort of over 100,000 female nurses born between 1945 and 1964 and surveyed since 1989.”
