Where people included notes about the character portrayal I've added
those.<br /><br />As you'd expect - <strong>SPOILERS AHEAD! </strong> <br /><br /><strong>Buffy The Vampire Slayer</strong> - Willow (dates Oz and Tara, B word isn't said specifically)<br /><strong>Powerpuff Girls</strong> - HIM is a villain who is camp, fun, cartoon fake and cool.<br /><strong>VMA Awards 2003</strong> - the kiss with Madonna Britney and Christina. Fetishising of sexual contact between women?<br /><strong>Brooklyn 99</strong> - Rosa Diaz is a really positive and 'real' feeling; coming out episodes really well done and relateable<br /><strong>She-Ra</strong> (netflix remake not the 80s version) - Sea-Hawk is canon bi<br /><strong>Euphoria</strong> - Jules' bisexuality is addressed later in the show when she starts dating a woman<br /><strong>The 100</strong> - Clarke is but it's unaddressed same as other LGBTQ characters in the series<br /><strong>Glee</strong> - Brittney - her (lesbian) girlfriend and other gay characters were discussed, however her sexuality was not addressed<br /><strong>Shadowhunter</strong> - Magnus is actually described as a "freewheeling bisexual"<br /><strong>Schitt's Creek</strong> - David is described as pansexual but very welcoming portrayal and the wine analogy is everything<br /> and I use it to explain bi/pan all the time<br /><strong>The Bi Show</strong>
(<i>side note: I think the writer means "The Bi Life"</i>) & RuPaul's
Drag Race. In particular Courtney Act - bisexuality was not brought up in RuPaul Drag
Race but later CA hosted a show on bisexuality.<br /><strong>The Bold Type</strong>
- Kat Edison. Addresses the invalidation of the bi experience even
within LGBT spaces and being called "fence sitter" or "piut stop before
coming out as gay".<br /><strong>The Good Place</strong> - Tahani and Elanor. No labels placed but it is implied and no one bats an eyelid<br /><strong>Killing Eve</strong><br /><strong>Gentleman Jack</strong> - hard to tell motivations due to being a period drama with social expectations of the time<br />And coming soon: <strong>Heartstopper</strong> starts 22 April 2022. Nick Nelson, it's based on a comic which explores Nick realising he is bi and his journey coming out.<br /><br />When

We've just done a new email update to let people know about events still to come in the North West and the supply of fab new Bisexual History posters (they're big - pick them up at our History Month outreach stalls or in-person at BiPhoria meets).<br />

Not least a plethora of bi social meetings including yet another meet of the Bisexual+ Book Group.<br />
<br />
It's LGBT History Month and there is lots to do! Including a fistful of talks that are bi-relevant around the country... though peculiarly nothing at People's History Museum this time, where we've had talks and/or stalls in the past.<br />

We've got bi talky space, pub meet and coffee meet, along with events in the Midlands and South for those who fancy a bit of travelling - and the news that Britain has its first openly pansexual MP and that at long last civil partnerships are open to mixed-sex couples. Both things long overdue!Jenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11050857281962904047noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5006466341552611722.post-34301713164388798042019-12-03T00:30:00.000+00:002019-12-05T21:15:11.491+00:00Wrapping up for the festive seasonThe year is coming to an end and here's our <i>what's on </i>for bi Manchester shenanigans this December.<br />

<br />
We've been on two Pride marches.<br />
<br />
We arranged two bi talks for LGBT History Month.<br />
<br />
And it's only just ramping up to summer!<br />
<br />
But one of the ways we will be able to make the most of the July - August - September busy bi season is through more people helping out on those pieces of work. If you could be the person who takes the lead on getting bi people together at your local Pride, please take five minutes to <a href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfK0dYMgiv-T07wMostSor3DxF6_d4Dkij4of2Q_b6Q4D4AMA/viewform" target="_blank">fill out our Pride season bi volunteering form</a>.Jenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11050857281962904047noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5006466341552611722.post-52859665405059346962019-07-01T09:30:00.000+01:002019-07-01T09:30:03.901+01:00The Bi Guide to...
