Sunday, September 27th, 2009

GLAAD and the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force both celebrated Bi Pride Day (aka Celebrate Bisexuality Day) this year, in full force.

Article about Recent Conference

Sunday, September 13th, 2009

Here’s an article about a recent conference in Chicago. As I mentioned on this blog, I participated in the conference, which was a summit on bisexual health; I moderated a panel. While I was in Chicago, I also attended the LGBTI Health Summit, which took place immediately after the Bisexual Health Summit (and was organized […]

What a difference a day makes…

Sunday, August 9th, 2009

Or a week… A couple of weeks ago, I thought I wouldn’t be able to make it to the LGBTI Health Summit or to the Bi Health Summit, both of which are happening this week in Chicago! But, thanks to some hard-working conference organizers (thanks Julie, Ed, Stewart, and Cat!) and by the grace of […]

First of all, speaking at Stanford University Medical School this week was so much fun! I gave a talk entitled “Why Bisexuals Have Worse Health than Gays & Lesbians — And What We Can Do about All Health Disparities,” based on the book I co-authored, Bisexual Health (2007: National Gay & Lesbian Task Force). Those […]

Condom Dance

Sunday, February 8th, 2009

My friend Robin Mills is at it again, with a very cool sex education mission. Robin and I got our master’s degrees in sexuality studies together, and now she is focusing her efforts on reaching out to young people of color, to teach them about safer sex and sexual health. Here she is being interviewed […]

Brown University Gets It

Sunday, December 14th, 2008

Kudos to Brown University for spreading the word about bisexual health!
Brown University
Did you know that bi-identified people are more likely than monosexuals to suffer from depression, alcoholism, mental illness, and domestic violence victimization, among other health/ safety/ well-being issues? When it comes to the intersection of health and sexual orientation, bisexuals are at the […]

I’m on the radio!

Sunday, November 2nd, 2008

I had a fun time the other day doing an interview for WGDR Radio in Vermont, on a program called Woman Stirred Radio. Thanks to Merry, my excellent host and interviewer!
