In the realm of LGBTQ+ agg rearch, bisexual dividuals are rarely reprented as thoroughly as lbians and gay men; when bisexual dividuals are clud sampl, their experienc are often bed wh those of other non-heterosexual inti rather than examed their own right (Fredriksen-Goldsen, Jen, & Mura, 2019).

This supplement is a rource to help anizatns and service provirs adopt approach to help lbian, gay, bisexual, transgenr and queer (LGBTQ) senrs strengthen human nnectns. Social isolatn is a silent realy experienced by many senrs, particularly LGBTQ senrs. * gay bisexual seniors *
This experience may be explaed by the fact that relatively few olr bisexual dividuals know another olr bisexual person (Jen, 2019) and bisexual olr adults are ls likely to have a person who shar their sexual inty their close social work pared to lbians and gay men (Erosheva et al., 2016). The dynamic nature of sexual experience, bed wh the cultural impacts of biphobia and begativy, may expla why bisexual adults are ls likely to report that their sexual inty is important to them or to view their sexualy a posive light pared to lbians and gay men (Pew Rearch Center, 2013).
Beyond one’s personal experience of sexualy, prelimary evince related to sexual healthre dit that olr bisexual men (ag 50 and olr) are ls likely to receive HIV or sexually transmted fectn (STI) screengs pared to younger bisexual men (Schnarrs et al., 2016) or olr gay men (Fredriksen-Goldsen et al., 2013).
Addnally, very ltle is known related to the sexual health of olr bisexual women, although adult bisexual men and women report more sexually risky behavrs than do gay men or lbians, and olr bisexual men report ls ndom e and make up a disproportnate percentage of new HIV fectns pared to younger bisexual men (Schnarrs et al., 2016).
