We have been in continuous publication since 1983, and are the oldest bisexual+ women’s publication in the world, with an international readership. We feature the voices of women with bi+ sexualities (i.e., bi, pan, fluid, and other non-binary sexualities). We see “woman” as a broad category with space for an array of gender identities and expressions. We welcome contributions from bi+ women who identify as trans, non-binary, cis, and beyond. Read, subscribe (for free) , and learn more at www.biwomenquarterly.com

We are entirely volunteer-run! Here's how you can support our work:
1) Share Bi Women Quarterly with friends, family, and your social media network.

2) Donate or become a fundraiser for Pride Month through our Give OUT page:

October 11th is National Coming Out Day! đź©·đź’śđź’™

For more than four decades, grassroots spaces like Bi Women Quarterly have worked to amplify the voices of bi+ women around the world. National Coming Out Day serves as an important reminder that our bisexual+ identities are distinct, complete, and valid all on their own.

By being our authentic selves, we step into the long history of q***r advocacy and dismantle oppressive forces with empathy and dignity one day at a time. Whether that means coming out or not, YOU are the driving force that moves us forward.

We are proud to be part of this resilient community, today and everyday! đź’–

For too long, bisexuality has been framed as a stop along the way to somewhere else, a phase before coming out as gay or le***an, an experiment before “settling down,” or something that disappears depending on who we love. But bisexuality is not a detour.

It is not confusion. It is not indecision. It is not a halfway point between heterosexuality and homosexuality. And it does not become less real because of the gender of our partner, our relationship status, or who we have loved before.

Bisexual Visibility Month is an opportunity to challenge the idea that bi+ people are always on their way to becoming something else. We deserve to be recognized not as a transition, but as a community with our own identities, experiences, histories, joy, and struggles.
