“…In general, studies documented milestones were occurring at earlier ages than in previous cohorts, they differed for males and females quite noticeably, and there was heterogeneity of patterns in their timing and order; for example, those who came out at younger ages appeared to have more comfort with their status (Floyd & Stein, 2002), but increased risks for family rejection and school harassment than those who waited until young adulthood to come out (D'Augelli, Hershberger, & Pilkington, 1998). Studies noted more fluidity of attractions and labels among females (Savin- Williams & Diamond, 2000), with a significantly higher proportion of females than males identifying as bisexual or mostly heterosexual in population surveys (Russell & Seif, 2002;Saewyc et al, 1998aSaewyc et al, , 2004a. One of the few studies examining sexual orientation among ethnic groups found that African-American and Latino groups showed no differences in most milestones compared to White teens, but delays in public disclosure and less involvement in gay-related social networks (Rosario, et al, 2004).…”

“…Studies that include multiple measures of orientation reveal another important issue: attraction, identity and behavior are not always concordant among adolescents or adults (Austin et al, 2007;Floyd & Stein, 2002;Russell & Seif, 2002;Saewyc et al, 1998aSaewyc et al, , 2004aSaewyc et al, , 2009Savin-Williams & Ream, 2007). Such studies face complex choices for defining groups: do they choose a primary measure of orientation relevant to a particular analysis?…”

“…C'est le cas de l'expérience des personnes bisexuelles, a fortiori celle de leurs parents. D'une part, il existe une certaine représentation de la bisexualité voulant qu'elle soit une phase transitoire entre les catégories dichotomiques et binaires de l'homosexualité et de l'hétérosexualité (Brewster et Moradi, 2010 ;Russel et Seif, 2010 ;Sheets et Mohr, 2009). D'autre part, une auto-identification bisexuelle est moins courante compte tenu des préjugés tenaces qui y sont associés (par exemple, la sexualité débridée des personnes bisexuelles ou leur incapacité à entretenir des relations conjugales saines et satisfaisantes) et l'invisibilité ou l'absence d'une communauté bisexuelle (Brewster et Moradi, 2010 ;Sheets et Mohr, 2009).…”

“…La plupart des études portant sur les jeunes des minorités sexuelles ne comprennent pas d'échantillons assez grands pour cerner des différences significatives entre les jeunes gais et lesbiennes et ceux s'identifiant comme bisexuels. Les chercheurs sont alors enclins à généraliser les résultats obtenus auprès des gais et des lesbiennes à la population bisexuelle (Russel et Seif, 2010). Ces considérations expliquent en partie la tendance à englober les personnes bisexuelles dans l'acronyme « LGB » ou l'expression « minorités sexuelles » sans qu'il y ait reconnaissance de leurs particularités ou expériences spécifiques, notamment en ce qui a trait à la biphobie sociale et intériorisée.…”
