Bisexual Terror!

A response to a media narrative about bisexuality, out now in OutSpoken

In 1976, Elton John announced he was bisexual. He wasn’t – few men have better met Homer Simpson’s requirement for “homosexuals flaming.” At the time though, even for a famous – and famously camp – musician, being gay was socially unacceptable. It was perverse, threatening, wrong, and often illegal. But being bisexual? That was just another quirk of eccentric brilliance.

A quick piece debunking the media narrative that bisexuals are deeply anxious and depressed. They’re, um, not. Give it a read!

Sorry for the silence on this email list; I’ve been quietly busy with some bigger pieces and bigger life changes, but there will be some smaller pieces like this to enjoy whilst the bigger, juicier stuff cooks. Hope all are well.
