Abstract
Gay persons obtained Death Anxiety Scale score means similiar to those in predominantly heterosexual populations in addition to exhibiting the same lack of relationship between death anxiety and age ordinarily found among heterosexuals. The death anxiety resemblance of gay lovers who live together is analogous to the previously reported heterosexual husband-wife death anxiety resemblance. However, male and female gays had almost identical Death Anxiety Scale means. This contrasts to heterosexual populations, in which females consistently have higher scores than males.
