		<title>Why I&#8217;m not out</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tiresias has written recently about the importance of bi guys being visible (Goodbye, Mister Bond: Why Telling Matters). I had been wondering for a while if I should come out and be honest with the world about myself, particularly since developing intense feelings for a close friend. But I have decided that I’m not going [...]]]></description>

I have to confess I&#8217;m not normally a reader of The Sun newspaper, but sitting in a Chinese takeaway yesterday, flicking idly through a copy of it, I was struck by the sight of the word &#8216;bisexual&#8217; in a headline. It appears that a number of American female celebrities [...]]]></description>

		<title>Writer&#8217;s block</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lately there have been some people who have expressed concern that I&#8217;m no longer updating this web site. First of all I&#8217;d like to reassure everyone that I am. Though truthfully, not as frequently as I once was. Comments are still been published and I&#8217;m replying to individual posts whenever I think I have something [...]]]></description>

		<title>What do I want from my male friends?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Marston, our newest contributor, opens with an piece which I think many Bi-guys can relate to, the conflict of realising you&#8217;ve fallen for a guy yet at the same time are happily married to your wife. 
This question has been much on my mind lately. I’m a 39 year old bi guy, I am very [...]]]></description>

		<title>LGBT Portrayals in Soap Operas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A week or so back I was contacted by a young lady who is doing some research into the representation of lesbian gay and bisexual people in soap operas for her Media Studies A-level.
Soap Operas are some of the most viewed programs on TV, therefore even if you are not a soap fan, the way [...]]]></description>

		<title>The modern HIV epidemic</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When the gay &#38; bisexual community talks about the HIV epidemic, they talk about it in past tense. They talk about it as something which plagued the gay &#38; bisexual community during the 80&#8217;s and early 90&#8217;s. Claiming the lives of countless friends, sons and loved ones.
At the time conservative hard-liners cackled with glee at [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bi Now, Gay Later:  Staring Down a Myth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Bi the Way has described why bi men can look gay to those who know them.  I won&#8217;t restate what Bi the Way has already written, but I want to briefly show how homophobia, media portrayals, and bi writing itself conspire to make bisexuality look like a ruse.  Understanding how the myth works can help [...]]]></description>

		<title>Goodbye, Mister Bond: Why Telling Matters</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wrote last time that I&#8217;m closeted.  It&#8217;s not that I haven&#8217;t told anyone, but not everyone I&#8217;ve told believes me.  Yesterday, a friend claimed I&#8217;m just like her: straight but not afraid to cross the gender barrier.  Meanwhile, my wife insists that I&#8217;m just curious.  Thus I remain to others curiously straight, and to [...]]]></description>

The petition reads:

		<title>Private Bisexuality</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I get an increasing number of emails from distraught women who have just found out their boyfriend or husband is bisexual. For some this obviously creates issues for their relationship, but for most the biggest issue seems to be that their boyfriend won&#8217;t talk about his bisexuality with them.
I feel for these women, because they [...]]]></description>

		<title>Papal address angers LGBT groups</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Pope&#8217;s end of year address has angered LGBT groups as Pope Benedict XVI made a clear rejection of Gender Theory. Gender theory explores sexual orientation and the roles assigned to individuals by society according to gender.
The address follows the Vatican&#8217;s refusal to endorse a UN sponsored universal declaration to decriminalize homosexuality. And is the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Borderline Asexual?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently I&#8217;ve been wondering if I might actually be asexual rather than bisexual. You see, my physical and emotional attraction to people of both sexes still remains, but my sex-life has once again ground to a halt. In fact its gotten so bad I actually went and looked up the definition of asexuality to see [...]]]></description>

The sense of hope is palpable. We can feel it on the opposite side of the Atlantic, America is energised, optimistic and hungry for change. The around the world people [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gay Politics vs. Bisexual Politics</title>

I thought I&#8217;d write something explaining my take on the differences between gay and bisexual politics and possibly add some insights into why the gay community exists as a political movement, whereas bisexuals don&#8217;t even seem to have a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Is it safe to vote Republican?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With the US presidential elections just weeks away, has anything changed in the political landscape that allows, lesbian, gay or bisexual people to feel comfortable voting Republican? With the economy and foreign policy dominating the issues in this year&#8217;s campaign, social issues such as abortion and gay-marriage have slid down the agenda.
The fact that these [...]]]></description>

		<title>Religious Intolerance</title>

His argument against Gay Marriage was so laughably bigoted I had to repost it just to be sure I inhabit the same world.
