About this title

Synopsis

Even as the broader LGBT community enjoys political and societal advances in North America, the bisexual community still today contends with decades of misinformation stereotyping them as innately indecisive, self-loathing, and untrustworthy. Claiming the B in LGBT strives to give bisexuals a seat at the table. This guidebook to the history and future of the bisexual movement fuses a chronology of bisexual organizing with essays, poems, and articles detailing the lived experiences of bisexual activities struggling against a dominant culture driven by norms of monosexual attraction, compulsory monogamy, and inflexible notions of gender expression and identity. Kate Harrad’s anthology of a thriving identity yearning to realize itself provides a vision of bisexuality that is beyond gay and straight, rather than left to merely occupy the space between.

About the Author

Store Description

The Book Merchant Jenkins is a general antiquarian bookstore in West End, Brisbane, buying and selling new, used, and rare books in all genres; specialising in niche non-fiction with a focus on Sexuality, LGBTIQ+, Ethnopharmacology, Dance, Performance, and Art. We publish a list of newly catalogued material every Wednesday, The Weekly Jenkins. This is the best way to discover our weird and wonderful books, though there are plenty more in the shop that are not on the website. When visiting our store in person you will most likely find Jenkins sitting at his desk with a pencil behind his ear cataloguing books; he will leave you to browse peacefully but be happy to answer your questions about books or help you find something you saw on the website. The Book Merchant Jenkins also conducts regular rare book auctions (around once a month). The auctions are held live in our West End store and streamed on our website with live online bidding.
