I'm bisexual (with only rare exceptions to being straight these days), but during the 80s, I considered myself completely lesbian, having lost interest in men completely for a while and finding women attractive around the same time. Most guys back in the 70s were lousy in bed, back before porn and other media made the clitoris more known about, so women were the hornier choice for me to prioritize instead of acting on my actual bi-ness. I was too shy back then to just say to men what I needed or explain about the clit, etc.
For promiscuity, back then anyways, among lesbians it was very difficult to find sex. I would have been very happy if they were as promiscuous as the straight men who I had offers of sex from, but unfortunately I was still not getting as much as I wanted. The only promiscuity happened at bars where everyone was extremely drunk and sweaty from dancing - not my thing. I suspect that this is still somewhat true today to an extent, since I hear there is still a political anti-sex attitude that's prevalent. In the reverse sexism of the radical feminist cult I used to be part of, much of sex was thought to be oppressive and male and victimizing and objectifying, etc.
Men (gay or straight), seem to be much more relaxed about the idea of casual sex. And from what I have seen anecdotally, straight women are much more promiscuous than lesbians. Maybe just because there is so much more opportunity for promiscuous straight women to take advantage of.
