I don’t talk about sexuality much on this blog, but I feel like Bi Visibility Day is important in helping to overcome the stigma faced by bisexual people even as the LGBT+ community becomes more accepted in society overall. Bi Visibility Day is observed every September all over the world and is an important day to bring awareness to the unique challenges that bisexual people face. We can overcome the stigma that bi people face by using this day to increase visibility for the bi community.
Celebrate Bi Visibility Day on September 23rd
Bi Visibility Day, also known as International Celebrate Bisexuality Day, is a holiday meant to increase awareness of the unique struggles that, we, as bi individuals, face within the LGBT+ community. This holiday was designed to help bi people around the world fight the feelings of social isolation we often face in a world that expects us to be either straight or gay. Bi Visibility Day was first introduced in 1999 and is celebrated every year on September 23rd all around the world. It is a day to speak out against biphobia and to help bisexual people to find our place within the global bi community.
Bi Visibility Day provides a platform to the bi community to bring global attention to the social, economic, and cultural prejudices and challenges often faced by bisexual men and women.
