Bisexual Parenting

The questions regarding same sex parenting are nearly as varied and vocal as those surrounding abortion. Well, that may be an exaggeration, but it seems that the quality of life and one’s ability to parent is somehow linked to sexual orientation. As with a great many things in the BLGT community, there is a focus [...]

Bi Wishes For The New Year

It’s that time of year already—the holidays, and soon 2010 will upon us.
Everything I want, would be too big to fit into one article, so I’ve decided to focus on something I really care, and the only places I’ve ever truly felt at home—the bisexual & LGT communities.
Laws that acknowledge our rights and protect [...]

The ‘Barsexual’ Debate

If you’re bisexual, especially a bisexual woman, chances are you’ve heard about this at least once—probably many more times. Tyra Banks even came up with a name for it: The ‘Barsexual’ trend (she did a whole show on it with several barsexual guests, naturally it was “lesbians vs. barsexuals,” and didn’t mention bisexuals! [...]

BSN: Celebrating a Year of Bi Programing

I want to take this time to thank everyone who has made Bi Social News (BSN) what it is today. December 1, 2009 will be our first year anniversary (wow)—I had to check the Website domain expiration date on that one! But I can’t believe we’ve come so far!

Being Thankful For The Bisexual Community

Unfortunately, with all the setbacks the BLGT equality movement has had lately, much of the community news has been dwelling on the not so great news. So for Thanksgiving, I thought I’d write a bisexual version of “What I’m thankful for.”
First of all, even though I can’t really be out to my family, I’m [...]

How Far Have We Come?

In honor of Bi Pride Day, I’ve decided to do an analysis of how far have we come in being more accepted and visible in both the gay and straight communities, and how far do we still have to go?
I’ve only been out a year, but in that year I’ve gotten to know lots of [...]

Dating a Bisexual: Should Straights, Gays or Lesbians Go for It?

Many in the straight, gay and lesbian community are afraid of the big “B” word—Bisexual. Would you date a bisexual? The biases might surprise you.

A Bisexual Space to Call Our Own

People have commented about the “bisexual community”, some praising how it has acted together to combat the latest round of biphobia, others wondering why there isn’t more of a community. I’ve wondered, what exactly constitutes the bisexual community, and how is it different from the gay, lesbian, and transgender community?
Since I’ve been out, I’ve read [...]

The GLBT Community and Religion

Today I’m going to talk about something rather controversial — the wacky, love-hate relationship between religion and the GLBT community. Why do so many GLBT people leave religion, and how do those that don’t, make peace with it? From my experience, many of us leave religion because we are tired of feeling hated [...]
