 AB    The French National Survey on Sexual Behavior was used to identify
       sociodemographic characteristics and sexual behavior of bisexually
       active men, as distinct from both homosexually and heterosexually active
       men. In regard to number of partners and frequency of unprotected
       vaginal sex, bisexuals were similar to multipartnered heterosexuals. On
       sociodemographic criteria, they differed from both homosexuals and
       heterosexuals. Bisexual men reported fewer partners than homosexuals but
       seemed more likely to engage in risk behavior related to the acquired
       immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), and they were less likely to have ever
       had a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) test. These results justify
       prevention efforts specially adapted for bisexuals.
