Bisexuality

Bisexuality sits in the middle of the gay/straight dichotomy. For this reason, bisexuality is often viewed with suspicion by gay and straight alike. Many works on bisexuality are concerned with increasing the visibility of bisexual people and dismantling myths.

Instead of the binary approach of gay or straight, the idea of a spectrum of sexual orientation, identity, or behaviour may be preferable.
