Happy Bisexual Awareness Day 2020 (as defined)!


First off, Happy Bisexual Visibility Day, guys! We observe this occasion on September 23 each year to “recognize and celebrate bisexual people, the bisexual community, and the history of bisexuality.”


How many of you here are living their lives as out and proud bisexuals? 



We are asking because according to Pew Research Center’s study, bisexuals “account for about four-in-ten LGBT adults in the United States.” But did you know that bisexual adults are “much less likely than gays and lesbians to be ‘out’ to the important people?

This is probably because “they don’t feel accepted and supported not only in the society but also within the LGBT+ community.”


In fact a study found that, and I quote:


  • bisexual men are less socially accepted as opposed to bisexual women, gay men, and lesbians
  • Only 8% of the respondents felt there was “a lot of social acceptance of bisexual men”
  • 46% said there was “only a little or no social acceptance for this group”
  • among bisexuals, 40% reported in 2013 that they had “ever been subject to slurs or jokes”
  • 31% said they had been “rejected by a friend or family member because they were bisexual.”

The myths surrounding bisexuality aren’t really helping any. There’s a popular notion that bisexuals are, among many others, simply:

  • sluts and are always on the lookout for threesomes
  • just going through a phase
  • just confused
  • they are attracted to anything that moves
  • they simply can’t pick a side: straight or gay
  • they are greedy
  • they are unfaithful

So, going back to the question at hand, do we need Bisexual Visibility Day? 


The answer is yes. For as long as inequality and these misconceptions and myths persist; for as long as there is a need for awareness and there’s a problem regarding its social acceptance… yes. Yes, we do!
