As a doctoral student at the Indiana University Center for Sexual Health Promotion, I am lucky enough to have many one-of-a-kind experiences, from traveling to conferences to present research to sharing meals with my intellectual heroes, but my favorite by far is being able to conduct important research on bisexual communities. It is an extremely gratifying experience to be able to do work that validates my own identity and those with identities similar to mine. My overall research has focused on bisexual health, specifically parenting, reproductive health, and experiences of stigma. This research has taught me more about the joy that comes from doing work that seeks to make visible a community that is too often ignored. Further, we are able to provide information back to the community that allows for further justification of issues being faced, resources to be allocated, and importantly funding.

Bisexuality, by definition, means that someone is sexually attracted to both men and women. This can also extend to agender or gender-queer people, but a lot of the LGBTQ community likes to call that pansexual instead. Regardless of your preferred terminology, being bi means that you, for lack of better phrasing, could be attracted to anybody regardless of gender.
