Drooling on Facebook 2008-04-29 10:29:40 OMG - Why are all the best looking guys straight? I’ve just spent the last hour drooling over some photos published by two of my “friends” on Facebook
. I won’t say which, because it’ll embarrass them, but they are both hotter than a Moroccan sunset!
OK - one of them I know is a bit of [...]

Worst Coming Out Ever 2008-04-26 08:19:34 For a lot of people, coming out as bisexual is a largely positive experience. For me I thinking coming out was ultimately a good thing, however the method of my coming out was an absolute disaster. So I’m going to share with you here the story of the “worst coming out ever” - I can [...]
Have the Ad men got it wrong or are we all just a bit gay? 2008-04-26 07:23:30 Successful Advertising Agencies are famed for knowing their audience, they research heavily, they sample they test and produce a concept designed to appeal. So pray explain, if 95% of men are supposedly straight why are so many ads for men’s grooming products and clothing, particularly underwear, laced with a healthy dose of homoerotic imagery?

Winning over female friends 2008-04-20 15:14:27 As a male bisexual, getting friends to understand your sexual orientation is sometimes quite tricky. Upon learning of my bisexuality no fewer than 3 of my friends, all female, have declared how they “can’t imagine ever wanting to sleep with a member of the same sex”. Concerned that this response showed a lack of empathy, [...] Read more:Winning
A list of famous bisexuals 2008-04-14 17:31:42 When it comes to discovering your bisexuality, realising you are not alone is a big part of the acceptance process. I had no idea I was in such good company, so I guess if you are young guy or even a girl struggling with your sexual identity and thinking you just might be bisexual, then [...]
End the Blood Ban 2008-04-13 14:12:36 I just found out that men who have sex with other men, even if they they only ever have ’safe sex’ are excluded from being blood donors. Yet a woman who has unprotected sex with hundreds of different men is allowed to give blood!
Crazy, but its true. Due to the “risk” of HIV transmission, the [...] Read more:Blood
5 Myths about Bisexuality 2008-04-13 11:05:18 There’s a lot of nonsense written about bisexuals and the media often portray an unfair stereotype, so here’s a list of 5 myths about bisexuals that we shall debunk right here and now.
Myth #1 Bisexuality doesn’t exist.
This is based on the simplistic notion that people are either straight or gay. Well sorry to mess-up your [...] Read more:Myths
Permission to Lust 2008-04-13 08:44:43 I guess like many bisexual men, there were many years for which I denied my sexuality. I first became aware I might be bisexual in my mid-20’s, I’d see pictures of guys in magazines and on web sites and I’d find myself becoming aroused. These pictures were usually of fully clothed men or occasionally ribbed [...] Read more:Permission

Stop Homophobic Bullying 2008-05-01 05:00:51 Young people have a tough time these days, the media portrays them as yobs, hooligans and gang members. But the media isn’t anywhere near as hard on kids as they are on each other, especially when concerning lesbian, gay or bisexual issues.
Coming out as gay or bisexual or been “outed” by your peers can be [...]
I turned down David Wilkerson 2008-05-13 04:00:47 Sometimes, I suffer for my sexuality. You won’t believe it, but I just had a request to use one of my photographs (yes I’m an amateur photographer) as part of the cover design for a new David
Wilkerson book. And I turned
it down.
For those of you who don’t know him David Wilkerson is an [...]
Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill 2008-05-12 08:52:05 MP’s begin debating the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill this week. This legislation which is designed to update the existing 1990 Act, covers a number of points regarding what can and can’t be done with embryos and foetuses. This is a pretty controversial piece of legislation and the Pro-Life, Christian lobby are out in full [...]
The bisexual threat 2008-05-08 15:37:43 According to my gay friend who thinks of himself as a bit of gay rights activist, bisexuals are (quote unquote) “a threat
to the gay community because they undermine the cornerstone of gay political activism”. Namely that people can’t help being gay, they are born that way. Yet bisexuals come along and mess that right [...]
Bisexuality: What’s in a label 2008-05-08 05:00:59 There’s a risk that as soon as you adopt of label such as ‘bisexual’, others peg you with a stereotype, often that stereotype is unflattering, ill-informed or even prejudiced. Who wants to be judged by a label? Does owning an Adidas tracksuit make you a Chav? Does being a Scouser make you a car thief? [...]
Sex versus Sexuality 2008-05-06 05:00:24 I identify myself as bisexual, though I fully expect that the following revelation will lead to a lot of people questioning my self-identification. You see whilst I’ve had sex with several female partners, I’ve yet to have sex with a guy.
Bombshell? Perhaps not, I suppose that a lot of people would simply consider me ‘bi-curious’ [...]

Book Review: Bi Any Other Name 2008-05-02 15:22:25 I freely confess, I’m a bit of a bookworm. So I figured I’d write a series of articles about interesting books I’ve read about bisexual culture.
The first book on my list is “Bi Any Other Name: Bisexual People Speak Out” which is a collection of essays by over 70 bisexual writers, both male and female, [...]
An island of 90,000 Lesbians 2008-05-02 05:15:02 A lesser known fact is that word lesbian, popular for describing homosexual women, originates from the name of a Greek island called Lesbos. The association of the island with female homosexuality is due to the writing of the ancient Greek poet Sappho, who frequently expressed female to female love in her work and was a [...]
The children might see 2008-05-17 16:33:53 Homophobia seems to frequently take the guise of child protection, which is irritating as it perpetuates the myth that homosexuals and bisexuals are somehow not child friendly. Yet this belief was illustrated wonderfully today by one of my friends who over lunch confidently declared that he didn’t mind gays and lesbians but thought that “they [...]
Bi Invisibility 2008-05-22 04:00:50 Do you know any other men who are bisexual?
Chances are you don’t. But why not?
A US survey in the 1990’s put the incidence of male bisexuality at 1.8%. That’s almost 1 in 50 and most of us know more than 50 people. So how come bisexuals are so invisible?
Well to kick off with there’s the [...]

13 breeds of bisexual 2008-05-28 16:54:25 Did you know there are 13 different types of bisexuality?
No? Neither did I, but apparently there are 13 ways to pigeon-hole us. According to J.R. Little bisexuals can be categorised in terms of their sexual desires and experiences and include:
Alternating Bisexuals - one relationship might be exclusively straight, the next exclusively gay and vice versa
Circumstantial [...]

The Bisexual’s Guide to the Universe 2008-05-30 04:00:08 Announced as “quips, tips and lists for those who go both ways”, The Bisexual’s Guide
to the Universe
, is a fun, irreverent and witty take on bisexuality. Packed full of feel-good bi philosophy and clever put downs for the straight and gay nay-sayers, this is not a book that takes itself too seriously. Nor can [...]
The Homosexual Atheist “Agenda” 2008-05-31 09:04:47 I’m amazed as just how often the words “homosexual” and “atheist” are used in the same sentence and how frequently homosexuals and atheists are presented as being one of the same. And what’s more apparently share a political agenda to run rough-shod over Christendom and traditional family values.
There are a plethora of socially-conservative organisations, such Read more:Homosexual

Kids: It’s OK to be gay 2008-06-03 08:30:06 I’ve previously commented on how children are often denied access to information about homosexuality and bisexuality. This is particularly true in the US and to a lesser extend in the UK where homophobic bullying still blights our schools.
Still I was informed that in Norway they have a more enlightened approach. Apparently, Skeiv Ungdom, a Norwegian [...]
Away on a Hiking Holiday 2008-06-05 04:00:22 From 6 June until 17 June I’m away on a hiking holiday. I’m off to the Knoydart Peninsula in remote western Scotland where I hope to get away from the rat race for a few days, then its on to Fort William where I hope to spend a couple of days relaxing before climbing Ben [...]

Bisexual Apathy 2008-06-09 12:00:02 Have you noticed that in some circles, bisexual intolerance has passed into a new phase? Its called “bisexual apathy”, it manifests itself as mock indifference towards someone’s sexuality, bred by columnists who declare with a tone of disinterest: “but everyone is bisexual these days!” The undertone is of course that bisexuality isn’t a real sexual [...]

Is Bisexuality Contagious 2008-06-14 04:00:21 I mentioned in a previous article that it seems like a lot more people are coming out as bisexual. And that’s a good thing, but I realise that there are a lot of people still out there who think, that people are “choosing” to be bisexual because they think it’s cool. And that bisexuality like [...]

How to talk to your bisexual boyfriend 2008-06-21 18:31:47 So you’ve just found out your boyfriend
is bisexual. Now what?
Well that really depends on the matter you discovered his bisexuality. If he came out to candidly he probably needs a hug and a bit of moral support. If you caught him in bed with another guy (or a girl if you’re coming at this [...]
How Gay are you feeling today? 2008-06-19 11:26:20 How gay are you feeling today? Odd question to ask I suppose, but as a bisexual guy, I often find myself having “gay days”. Periods when I am almost exclusively attracted to men, when my fantasies are almost exclusively homosexual and I seem to be completely ignoring women. Then bang! I spot a girl I [...]
I’m still closet with old people 2008-07-04 17:09:10 I guess I’m unusual in so much as I’m an out straight-leaning bisexual, there aren’t that many of us. Though by virtue of the internet, thankfully we can connect with others in the same boat and not feel quite so isolated. I wouldn’t like to say I’m proud of my sexuality, because that makes it [...]
