Do the majority of women actually have an endless sea of DMs, right swipes, and dates like some men claim?

I would argue that all of those things can happen to men having sex with men. Some probably to a lesser extent, but not so much that it fully explains the massive discrepancy in the attitudes of men and women to casual sex.

In particular, gay and bisexual men potentially experience sexual assault at a similar rate to heterosexual women

[

Population-based survey studies of ASA have seldom included men’s experiences and rarely assess sexual orientation; therefore, knowledge about the prevalence of ASA among gay and bisexual men is based primarily on studies utilizing data from non-random, purposive samples (for a review, see Rothman, Exner, & Baughman, 2011). Nevertheless, studies estimate that between 14%–20% of gay and bisexual men experience ASA (Kalichman et al., 2001Krahé, Schütze, Fritsche, & Waizenhöfer, 2000Ratner et al., 2003). These rates are higher than for heterosexual men and more similar to those reported for heterosexual women (Elliott, Mok, & Briere, 2004Friedman et al., 2011). A recent nationally representative survey conducted by the Centers for Disease Control found that 40% of gay men and nearly half of bisexual men (47%) compared to 21% of heterosexual men experienced sexual violence other than rape during their lifetimes (Walters & Breiding, 2013). About one-fourth of gay men (26.0%) and one-third (37.3%) of bisexual men, compared to 29.0% of heterosexual men, reported lifetime rape, physical violence and/or stalking by an intimate partner.
