Favorite Quote

The problem with living in a world so built upon binaries is that as soon as a new identity—or way of understanding ourselves—emerges, it quickly becomes defined in opposition to the thing that it's not.

Introduction

How does identifying as bisexual or non-binary impact the way society perceives you?

In Life Isn't Binary, writers Meg-John Barker and Alex Iantaffi draw on their experience as academics, activists, and therapists to explain the worlds of bisexuality and non-binary gender identity.

Barker has pioneered scholarly research on bisexuality, nonmonogamy, and non-binary genders.

Iantaffi draws upon their experience as a transmasculine, disabled person in their work on sexuality, gender, and disability.

Through statistics, research, and personal anecdotes, the authors discuss how bi and non-binary people face immense invalidation and invisibility in today's society.
