Bisexuals Are More Likely to Smoke Menthols, New Study Finds

Rutgers University has completed a new study that finds that bisexual women are more likely to smoke menthols. The study, published this week in the journal Nicotine & Tobacco Research, analyzed national data from 2015-2019 of respondents 18 years old and older by sex and sexual orientation.

According to the study, “Researchers found that 54 percent of bisexual female smokers preferred menthol cigarettes, and 50 percent of lesbian/gay female smokers preferred them, according to the university. That compares with 39 percent of smokers generally.”
