Even as the broader LGBT community enjoys political and societal advances in North America, the bisexual community still today contends with de

“I call myself bisexual because I admit that I own in myself 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.” –Robyn Ochs

Yay! It’s bisexual awareness week! Okay, okay I know I’m a bit late to the party. (Bi awareness week technically ended on the 27th). But having relatively recently come out as bi, it’s pretty exciting to have this visibility thing happening for a whole week! I hope that LGBT and non-LGBT media continue to be AWARE after the week ends. One thing I’d love to see is authors and characters correctly identified as bi / some other non-monosexual term instead of gay or straight.

Because books are how I process almost everything, of course lately I’ve been reading lots of non-monosexual books, some of which have become close to my heart.  But I&#;ve also realized that a lot of my favourite queer titles were bi all along, I just wasn&#;t paying enough attention!  So, here are my personal favourite

    Is The Year Of The Bisexual Book

    This smart and sexy novel is told from the perspective of a queer woman who falls for a dominant cis bloke. The protagonist, who has mainly only been with women, is thrown off when she falls in love with a man for the first moment — and as a submissive, no less. I particularly appreciated the depiction of the judgement she receives from her queer adj friend, and the way bisexuality is sometimes thought by homosexual and heterosexual people to negate “true” queerness. Little Rabbit refuses to play into tropes that to be submissive is to be inherently exploited, and is also a nuanced exploration of BDSM and power. It’s tough to put down, sexy, and not predictable.

    Quote:She rolled onto her back. “Okay,” she said, looking at the ceiling. “I guess you’re not really gay anymore, anyway.” The choreographer could include smashed me into the ground, he could have broken all my bones, and I wouldn’t have felt so annihilated.

    “What the fuck do you verb, I’m not gay anymore?” She sat up and flipped her golden hair onto her back. “I mean, you can identify
