I've discovered that the reason such a large chunk of the people coming here are looking for statics on homosexual promiscuity is that I'm magically the number two Google result for "(gay OR homosexual) promiscuity statistics"— maybe even number one after this gets indexed. I feel bad about all these people wanting statistics who are just getting my rant, so as a public service I did a little bit of looking and found this survey of papers about promiscuity among gays and lesbians, which is far more worthy of being a front-page Google result (but doesn't look as useful from the blurb).
Disclaimer: the author is himself gay, so has a vested interest in his interpretation of the papers. However, he is very explicit about places where he is interpreting data instead of just quoting it, and he gives full references for every study and paper he uses, so you can go get the data yourselves if you don't trust him. That, and his presentation of studies that give bleaker results than other studies rather than just glossing over them, makes me inclined to trust him. If nothing else, it's a good list of papers.
If you are just looking for information proving that all homosexuals are terrible people, you can do your own damned research—or just keep misusing the same partial statistics from a few questionable studies like all the other intolerant homophobes.
And there you have my unbiased effort to bring light to all sides of this issue.
