METHOD: Data came from the National Longitudinal Study for Adolescent Health (Shin, Edwards, \&amp; Heeren, 2009; Brummett et al., 2013), a prospective nationally representative study of U.S. adolescents followed into young adulthood. A total of 306 lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) respondents and 6,667 heterosexual respondents met inclusion criteria for this analysis. Measures of cumulative stressful life events were drawn from all 4 waves of data collection; sexual orientation and cardiometabolic biomarkers were assessed at Wave 4 (2008-2009). RESULTS: Gay/bisexual men exposed to 1-2 ($\beta$ = 0.71},
