Bisexuality Bisexuality is a psychological phenomenon that is still relatively inconclusive. Many people in society today are convinced that bisexuality is not even real, that bisexuality is simply a phase, and that it should not even be counted as a sexual orientation. The studies, tests, and data collected by researchers of the bisexual community have had difficulty being generalized based upon the variety and diversity of those who identify as bisexual. In early psychology, methods such

states that “bisexuality is often perceived as an illegitimate and unstable sexual orientation, such that bisexuals are perceived to be confused, experimenting, in transition from a heterosexual to a gay/lesbian identity, or in denial about their true sexual orientation.” This attitude towards bisexuality definitely creates tensions in societies. Furthermore, Feinstein et al. also states “While people have the

One of the most enabling definitions of bisexuality comes from a bisexual activist named Robyn Ochs. According her her, “bisexuality is the potential to be attracted – romantically and/or sexually – to people of more than one sex and/or gender, not necessarily at the same time, not necessarily in the same way, and not necessarily to the same degree” (Ochs). However, bisexuality did not always refer to sexual orientation. One of the first uses of the word ‘bisexual’ can be found in Psychopathia Sexualis

My Community of Practice is Bisexuals. To be Bisexual is to have a sexual attraction to both of the traditional genders, it can also be thought of as an attraction to all genders or regardless of gender. With an average of 2% of the United States being reportedly Bisexual, it is more common than people with red hair (McDonald).

The topic of the matter is homosexuality and genes. Could homosexuality and bisexuality be inherited? Is it likely or unlikely to be passed down? What is it?

Unfortunately it is common to simply brush off the identity as nothing more than a phase, or that the person is on their way to becoming attracted to only one sex not both the opposite and the same.“Bisexuality: 2.sexual attraction to persons of both sexes; exhibition of both homosexual and heterosexual behavior”(Dorland)

6% identified as homosexual, and 0.7% identified as bisexual. Heterosexuality which is widely is accepted, is when someone is attracted to the opposite sex. Homosexuality is defined as when a person prefers someone of the same sex as, and lastly bisexuality is

accepted in 32 states, however 18 states still ban same-sex marriage. More than same-sex marriage is being accepted, transgender and bisexuality are now being accepted along with homosexuality. Of course not everyone agrees with these changing views, but never the less changing. Over the past decade or so, a very high percentage of Americans accept homosexuality, bisexuality and

My Bisexuality Dreams are dangerous and wild things, but once captured and tamed, powerful insights to who you really are. I had the classic American dream: growing up, finding Prince Charming, getting married and living in a nice house with a white picket fence, two kids, and a dog. As I got older that dream of mine faded away until, one day, it no longer existed. The funny thing is, I can pinpoint that day exactly and how it changed my life. I was a sophomore in high school and, after overcoming
