Bisexuality: Theoretical and political challenges

Bisexuality has for many years been a marginalised topic within academia. Bisexual people have also historically been marginalised by both the lesbian and gay, and the heterosexual, communities. This lecture examines the erasure of bisexuality, and the academic and political implications of this. Drawing on empirical material from the UK and Columbia, it also discusses bisexual activisms, and the ways in which bisexual people exercise agency in democratic societies.
