Which makes no sense to me and is so beyond men-are-from-Mars-women-are-from-Venus that I could barf. Why wouldn’t there be bisexual men? Why wouldn’t a man be able to experience attraction to other […]

There was a big polyamory celebration in New York recently, and the New York Times ran an article about it! Check it out: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/05/fashion/05polyamory.html?pagewanted=1&_r=3.
It looks like polyamorous people are finally getting some much deserved attention, which is great. Or is it? Read between the lines, and there’s something unsettling going on in this portrayal. […]

Wow, the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force (NGLTF) named me a bisexual leader in the US!! It happened just this past week, on Bi Pride Day (aka National Celebrate Bisexuality Day), September 23rd.

Also, the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation […]

Basketball player Zach Puchtel came out last year, but the news finally seems to be getting attention now. Check out one of the original articles about him announcing his bisexuality: http://www.minnesotamonitor.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=2667.
