Bisexual

This is a community for bisexuals, their allies, friends, family, anyone curious about us or our community, or just people who want to hang out.

Bisexual means different things to different people, and I'm not going to tell you what it should mean to you. But one thing I will say is that being bisexual does NOT mean being trans-exclusionary. We love no matter what dingles, dongles, or dangles you do or do not have in your pants.

Of course, there are the basic rules. No hate speech, no brigading, no doxing, no homophobia, no transphobia, no sexism, no racism, no illegal material. Rules will be added as needed.

At the moment, we do not have a hard and fast rule over NSFW images or posts, but I will say that this is a community about bisexuality, not for porn. Please don't make me ban NSFW content altogether.

I found this article some days ago and I think it's really good. It gives a broad overview, answers typical questions and points out typical prejudice about bisexuality. I think it might be really helpful to someone who is just trying to figure themself out. Maybe we could put it in the sidebar?

While I do agree that it can sometimes be difficult to know one's self, I didn't figure out I was bisexual until I was almost 30, I'm not likely to put anything like this into the sidebar. That opinion may change as this community grows, and I'll listen to what members of this community want, but right now I don't think so.

Also, sadly, since that article is from a premium site that limits the number of articles one can view, it would not be my first choice. I don't want someone looking for guidance to suddenly hit a paywall. But I will keep in mind the idea of a pinned post or something similar for links to helpful resources.

Thank you for the suggestion!

Good point about the paywall. Did not think about that. I don't read enough medium articles to hit the limit.
