Biphobia: Deal with it and be more than a bystander

by Gordon Nore, Kate Phillips (Illustrator)

Prejudice and discrimination affect people with different sexual identities than the standard poles of "gay" and "straight."

This reader-directed exploration of biphobia/bierasure helps readers identify biphobia and start a conversation about how to deal with it.

The roles of the Bi+ Ally, the By+ Stander, and the Bi+ Eraser approach the issue from three different points of view, while quizzes and Q&As provide real-life scenarios and responses to biphobia.

A very close friend of mine recently had his daughter tell him she was bisexual. I read this book to try to help him talk to her; some of his extended family has already 'distanced' from her - this is not only a strain on her but he is very angry that members of his own family will not support her. I have known her since she was little. I want to be a person she can talk to (if she wants to) knowing that I will try to help her anyway I can. I had never heard the term Biphobia before, reason enough to pick up this book.
