In the last chapter she jumps into perhaps the sexiest topic in the book, threesomes, and looks at research into the fun and thorny topic of consensual non-monogamy. Following this, she tries to figure out what a bisexual person looks like (and whether that’s even a thing), tries to find bi-visibility on screen, and explores the colorful world of bisexual communities. She examines why it still feels inappropriate in many places to talk about bisexuality, including at work, and the mental and physical consequences of staying in the big bi closet.ĭr Shaw also comes to understand the devastating reality of criminalization and human rights abuses that so many bisexual people around the world face, and how we can use our anger to fuel a bisexual revolution. She goes on safari, figuratively, to look at behaviorally bisexual animals, and to try to understand whether there is a bi gene. Shaw explores how people have defined and measured bisexuality, uncovers its surprisingly long and important history, and learns about some famous bisexual, pansexual, and plurisexual activists and scholars whom everyone should know. In Bi: The Hidden Culture, History, and Science of Bisexuality, Shaw explores all that we know about the world’s largest sexual minority.
