On Bisexuals and “Hetero Privilege”

[bialogue]

I've seen bisexual friends, whose lives were heteronormative in every way, lose their jobs because they came out as bisexual at work. Just because you've got the opposite sex partner/spouse, the house, the kids and the traditional gender presentation doesn't mean that heteroprivilege can't be pulled out from underneath you at any time like a rug.

I've responded to this post on one of the many communities you posted it to, but you haven't responded. Do you really want to promote a dialogue?

We have notified the author of the piece and will assist in posting her reply(s) as soon as we receive them.

Bialogue itself is a activist political group working on issues of concern to the Bisexual/Pansexual, Queer-identified as well as greater LGBT and progressive communities. In this case this essay was written by Paige Listeraud from Chicago.
