  • To All the Bis I've Loved Before

    Have you ever wondered what it's like to date a bisexual person? We sure did, so we invited our significant others to talk about what it's like, how they learned we're bi, what their communities think, and to share advice for folks learning their partner is bisexual. Send us your questions and comments to [email protected] or leave us a voice memo https://anchor.fm/hellogoodbis/message

      • BiLingual
        According to Merriam-Webster, new words can be confusing-- but also empowering! Join Annie and Rose as they discuss strength-based language, define some of the words around sexual identity, and the labels you might choose! Have you wondered about the difference between bisexuality and pansexuality? What’s all this talk about spectrums? And who the hell is Albert Kinsey and why is he giving me a number? Get a primer on some key sexuality terms in this episode. Email us with suggestions, questions, and things we messed up at [email protected]
