“Sadly, there is a certain necessity, a certain self-protection in silence. Statistically, bisexual women are nearly twice as likely to experience domestic violence… The trope of heterosexual men asking for three ones with their bisexual partners is an eye roll, an annoyance, but this kind of thinking, this equating bisexuality with complete sexual openness and desire to please men, possibly so they won’t leave you, can be much more serious.”

“We all suffer oppression when we choose to express homosexual desire. We may suffer even more when we force ourselves to repress it. And although the experiences differ, we suffer whether, as with bisexuals, our desire might take other paths or whether, as with homosexuals, the only path is total repression. In each of these cases, our suffering results from the power of a homophobic society. We all share an interest in assuring that bisexuals make their choices, conscious or not, on the basis of desire rather than oppression. And gay liberation offers the only guarantee that this will happen.”

“The fear is that if so many of us who are bisexual are also, and have also been, and will also be its (supposed) opposite, then bisexuality cannot exist ‘in its own right.’

To see that bisexuality exists as a real, distinct sexuality is essential for our survival and well-being - but it can also lead into a bisexual orthodoxy about what it means to be a ‘real bisexual’ which is alienating and destructive.”

“Most of our lives are played out on the middle ground. To recognize this doesn’t mean that it is better or worse. This space in between gives us valuable information and, when recognized in relation to the absolute extremes, it helps communicate our various realities to each other. As those of us who don’t believe in the walls and fences join forces and speak out about our lives, the middle ground reminds everyone that we are part of the whole. And yes, this whole contains important extremes, but it is the vast expense of gray areas where most of us live.”

“Despite the almost crushing weight of my family’s and society’s requirements, the one thing I have never felt is heterosexual.”

Cuddling up under a blanket while watching a movie with friends…sliding a hand up your thigh, resting it between your legs. I can feel you getting hard...your breath is getting quicker...but we have to keep this a secret.

Can you cum if I squeeze it enough? If I stroke it nice and slow?

Do you think you can stifle all your little noises so nobody can tell I'm playing with you?

“I see bisexuals as the wanderers, because we can traverse the ground of the female world and also of the male world. Being able to do that allows us to glean from both of those gendered experiences… We traverse wide territories, allowing for the depth of exploration that doesn’t exist when you stay in one place. That has both its stresses and its benefits. When you traverse a large ground, you get the depth of the experience, but a certain lack of security.”

"This book contains a queer scientist..."

"This book contains a trans adventurer..."

"This book has a bisexual detective..."

Okay, but is it good? Because as a member of the alphabet crowd, I don't care if it's lgbtq friendly when I'm gonna be bored shitless by a mediocre plot.
