"Bird fancier"? Another thought for another day?

"A clutch of Lesbians"? Old hens? You live dangerously.

My question was serious. Almost all of the gay men I know have been monogamous for years - some for 30 -40 years. Their relationships seem stronger than most marriages I know. The atmosphere in this country in the 50s and 60s could explain it. The air of secrecy made it difficult to find multiple (acceptable) partners. And fear of discovery had to play a part. But some couples are men in their 30s who have been together since high school. AIDS I'm sure enters into the picture. Sorry for the ramble.
