Q: What was the relationship between gay men(+) & lesbian women(+) in the 90s?
A: A NYC study found that "Sexual identity and disclosure milestones, were measured across gender, sexual identity, race/ethnicity, and age cohort subgroups of the LGB sample.

LGBs in younger age cohorts experienced sexual identity milestones and disclosure milestones earlier than the older cohorts."
