Abstract Utilizing minority stress framework, this study assessed a model examining the mechanisms associated with bisexual women’s and gender expansive peoples’ experiences of sexual assault and PTSD symptoms. A total of 378 bisexual women and gender expansive people participated in this study, with the majority of participants identifying as White, cisgender women. Findings revealed that higher levels of outness were positively associated with more frequent anti-bisexual discrimination. In addition, anti-bisexual discrimination and sexual assault were significantly positively related to greater PTSD symptoms. Anti-bisexual discrimination was uniquely positively associated with more frequent experiences of sexual assault, and outness was indirectly related to sexual assault through anti-bisexual discrimination. Moreover, anti-bisexual discrimination was indirectly related to PTSD symptoms through sexual assault. Suggestions for future research and practice implications are discussed.

Today, at the age of fifty-nine, I read a sentence and a phrase connecting bisexual men and being showered with gas in concentration camps. Even though Holocaust Studies scholars hold before us the distinction between “concentration camps” and “extermination camps” (or “death camps,” built by Nazi Germany to systematically kill millions), someone did think that it was somehow acceptable to link bisexual men and gassing.

Abstract In this introduction to a collection of scholarly and artistic tributes honoring the life and work of decolonial bisexual philosopher, kweer and queer theologian, Sufi mystic, artist, and ethically non-monogamous kink practitioner, Shaykh Dr. Ibrahim Abdurrahman Farajajé (b. 1952; d. 2016). Interspersed among the tributes are several of Farajajé’s previously published and unpublished essays and speeches. The introduction is intended to be a poetic historiography that places Farajajé’s praxis in a genealogy of thought and challenges the invisibilization of Farajajé, an epistemic violence resulting from biphobia, erotophobia, monosexism and the matrix of domination—settler-colonialism, imperialism, white supremacy, capitalism, cisheteropatriarchy.

This project considers psychoanalysis and the theological revelations provided by Flannery O’Connor in her novel, “The Violent Bear It Away.” Psychoanalysis leads down a mysterious path of desire towards the Other with intrusions of the Real breaking in, articulating a pursuit of the unattainable. O’Connor reveals that this road has the potential to culminate in a revelation of the Real as the Real Presence of the God of Christianity. This project shows how she transcends the limitations of psychoanalysis through literature by demonstrating the existence of the Real consistently with Lacanian theory, ultimately unveiling a theological redefinition.

In Leviticus, Chapter 20, the Lord tells us: “If a man lieth with mankind as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death, their blood shall be upon them.” There’s no cause to wonder why medical science could not find a cure for this man’s illness. How could medicine cure temptation? What drug can exorcise Satan from a young man’s soul? The only cure is to be found in the Lord. The only cure is repentance, for Leviticus clearly tells us, ... “Whoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.” Shall be cut off from among their people: The words echoed in Jeff ’s head. His mind flashed back to scenes in the hospital: dingy, hospital green walls of an isolated room ... He remembered sitting quietly during visiting hours, not knowing what words of support to offer ... Shall be but off from their people, indeed.

For far too long, sexuality scholarship has erased and invisibilized people who are attracted to more than one gender/sex or regardless of gender/sex (e.g., bisexual, pansexual, and fluid individuals), questioned and invalidated their identities, and perpetuated harmful stereotypes about them (see Hayfield, 2021). Bi: Bisexual, Pansexual, Fluid, and Nonbinary Youth offers the promise of shining a light on the lives of these youth, celebrating their diversity and strengths, and dispelling harmful myths about their sexualities. Through interviews he conducted with bisexual, pansexual, and fluid youth, Savin-Williams offers a rare glimpse into the complexities of sexuality beyond the binary. In some ways, Bi lives up to its promises. Throughout the book, Savin-Williams calls for greater recognition of “the multitude of ways in which individuals are bisexual in their sexual and romantic profiles, developmental pathways, and life experiences” (p. 13); he emphasizes the importance of considering multiple dimensions of sexual orientation (attraction, behavior, and identity) and “expand[ing] the bounds of sexual orientation to include romantic components such as crushes, romantic fantasies, dating, love, attachment, and romantic relationships” (p. 13); and he encourages people to “celebrate the many assets possessed by bisexuals” (p. 14). Unfortunately, in other ways, Bi fails to live up to these promises—and instead perpetuates harmful stereotypes that continue to invalidate bisexual, pansexual, and fluid identities.

Abstract Although sport has traditionally been a toxic environment for sexual minorities, recent research has shown greater levels of inclusivity. Building on a growth of recent research on typically marginalized groups of sports fans – including women, racial minorities, and some sexual minorities – this research examines the experiences of English bisexual soccer fans. To do so, I draw on semi-structured interviews with 25 bisexual fans (14 cisgender men and 11 cisgender women) of a range of English soccer clubs. Findings indicate that English soccer stadia have become a more inclusive climate for bisexual fans. This was best evidenced by a growth of LGBT visibility through the formation of dedicated fan groups, as well as the general decline of anti-LGBT chanting. Despite the decline of abuse inside stadia, however, these fans spoke of how the proliferation of social media has provided an alternative platform for discrimination. Accordingly, these fans’ experiences of consuming soccer through social media differ significantly from their experiences inside sports stadia.
