It's not just close, it's the same. Gay men do have the types of sexual relationships that are more likely to lead to STD transmission than their heterosexual counterparts in the U.S. I actually often wonder why heterosexual men get condemned for promiscuity more than homosexual men. (Probably because there are no women to yell at them for it.)
Anyway, this 2006 papers looks at the effect of different network patterns in sexual relationships and STD transmission. Basically, the amount of overlap you have between sexual partners is key. The less, the better. http://www.scribd.com/full/29969122?access_key=key-19cz4fztdgmy90tcfecm http://www.scribd.com/full/29969122?access_key=key-19cz4fztd...
