39: B is for BISEXUALITY: Identity, Expressions, Myths & Realities

What does being BISEXUAL mean to you? Is it simply about who you're attracted to, or does it extend to your identity, expressions, and how you move through the world? Are you proudly out or navigating life in the closet?

In this episode, B is for BISEXUALITY: Identity, Expressions Myths & Realities, we explore bisexuality in all its rich and wonderful dimensions. We unpack what it means to identify as bisexual, debunk common myths, and dive into the stats behind this often-misunderstood identity. We also explain other related identities and expressions including fluid, omnisexual, pansexual, queer, bigender, and androgynous.

We examine how bisexual people are sometimes perceived by stereotypes - like the “tourist” trope or the idea that bisexuality is “just a phase”—and highlight research (like a study from Cornell University) that challenges those narratives.

We confront invisibility, erasure, and biphobia, exploring the ways these challenges shape the lives of bi folks.

Of course, it wouldn’t be one of our episodes without a few detours! Along the way, we also chat about squirting, the G-area (aka the G-spot), P-spot stimulation, orgasms, and pleasure.

This is one of our most personal, revealing episodes yet—full of insights, humour, and plenty of thought-provoking moments. Don’t miss it!

This is part of our T&A Alphabet Series, originally broadcast as live trainings in our Let’s Talk Polyamory private Facebook Community and on YouTube.
