  > Anal intercourse was higher among women (37.3%) than men (4.5%), P<0.001 This suggests that this isn’t just a problem for the gay community. Especially when paired with: > Anal intercourse is a common practice among both heterosexual and homosexual couples where at least one of the partners is male.

  From their own data: The relatively small (n=101) population of gay men, made up 4.7% of the overall population, but: - 3% of the "20-29 age bracket" subgroup - 7.5% of the "at or below Poverty Level" subgroup - 7% of the "3 or more comorbid conditions" subgroup, and 6.4% "2 comorbid conditions" So yes, in a world where gay men are more likely to be old, sick and poor, they're also more likely to suffer from fecal incontinence. What a shock!

  >Fecal incontinence was defined as the loss of liquid, solid, or mucus stool occurring at least monthly on a validated questionnaire. This seems highly ambiguous. Does this include bad accidental farts? I wish we could see what the respondents were given to define FI. Seems to be self-reported too so it’s even less reliable.
