The Erasure of Bisexual Men

Looking for ways to keep the conversation going about LGBTQ+ issues with your ERG, community group, or PFLAG chapter? Welcome to Something to Talk About, a series designed by PFLAG National’s Straight for Equality program to create conversation about LGBTQ+ issues. Each week we’ll offer an article on LGBTQ+ topics and suggest a few questions you can use to lead a discussion. 

We hosted a conversation about this article as a part of PFLAG Connects and Something to Talk About Live on Thursday, September 23. Did you miss it? You can still watch it here!

Have feedback about how your conversation went? Let us know by e-mailing [email protected].

Questions for Discussion:

  1. Why do you think many people, including people in the LGBTQ+ community have trouble understanding and discussing bisexual+ identities? How can people learn more about the bi+ community and bi+ people?

  2. What do you think the disparity between acceptance for bi+ women and bi+ men tells us about our conversations not only about bisexual+ identities, but also about gender?

  3. Today is Bi Visibility Day. In your work, what are some of the best examples of bi+ visibility that you have seen? What would you like to see more of in the future?
