No idea how accurate it is, but liberal alt-news site Daily Beast claims the following (along with a lot of other statistics)

http://www.thedailybeast.com/sex-who-has-the-most

12. Twenty-two percent more homosexual male couples who have been together for two years or less have sex at least three times a week than heterosexual couples who have been together for two years or less.

In other words, newly formed gay couples are getting it on more often than their straight counterparts—unless those counterparts are lesbians. Thirty four percent more homosexual male couples who have been together for two years or less have sex at least three times a week than lesbian couples who have been together for two years or less. Another study found that homosexual and bisexual men have more partners than heterosexual men. The frequency of gay male sex has been a political football for decades as antigay pundits pontificate about promiscuity. "Gay men tend to have more sex than straight men," Herbenick says, largely because gay male sex involves "two people who are biologically more likely to have more sex than women are."


However, the Guardian interestingly reports that gay and straight men both have the same number of sexual partners -- according to OKCupid

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2010/oct/19/gay-men-promiscuous-myth

Last week one of the world's largest dating websites, OkCupid, collated and published the results of their user "match" questions, which are designed to find out as much as they can about their 4 million members in order to help them find dates. The statistics are startling.

There is only a one percentage point difference between heterosexuals and homosexuals in their promiscuity: 98% of gay people have had 20 or fewer sexual partners; 99% of straight people have had the same number. Tellingly, OkCupid found that it is just 2% of gay people that are having 23% of the total reported gay sex.


Granted, the author seemingly has an agenda.
