I call myself bisexual because…
“I call myself bisexual because I acknowledge that I have in myself the potential to be attracted romantically and/or sexually to people of more than one gender, not necessarily at the same time, not necessarily in the same way, and not necessarily to the same degree. For me, the bi in #bisexual refers to the potential for attraction to people with genders similar to and different from my own.”

Labels Should Not Be Boxes
“Labels should not be boxes into which we feel we must squeeze ourselves, but rather tools with which to communicate and begin conversations.”

Robyn Quoted in Bitch Media Article
“I’ve identified as bi for 44 years this month, and one of the ongoing, continuous frustrations has been the disconnect between what I meant by the word ‘bisexual,’ and what other people think I mean.”

“There are many issues needing our attention and many ways to engage in activism. Some of us face health, economic, or other challenges of which others may not be aware. Let us respect others’ strategies and decisions about engagement.”
