Bisexual Health Awareness Month

Every March, we come together as a community for Bisexual+ Health Awareness Month to raise awareness and bring attention to the disparities facing the bi+ community when it comes to health and health care spaces. HRC is again proud to support the Bisexual Resource Center, which founded Bi+ Health Month, and organizations across the country to observe the eighth annual #BiHealthMonth this March. This year’s theme of “Equity” further highlights the importance of looking at our work with careful attention to the intersectional disparities that impact the most vulnerable among us.

According to new data from Gallup, over half of LGBT adults (54.6%) are bisexual, with another 3.3% describing their sexual orientation as non-monosexual with terms such as queer and same-gender-loving. This means that 57.9% of the LGBTQ community is bi+ (bisexual, pansexual, queer, fluid or another non-monosexual identity).
