Bisexuality Not Transitionality

Recently Lisa Diamond, a renowned sexuality researcher, published a study through the American Psychological Association dispelling the myth of bisexuality being a transitional phase for women. Her 10 year study found that bisexual women held a steady attraction towards both genders, as well as remained longer in committed relationships. Furthermore, these wonderful fence sitters appeared to interpret lesbianism as being more flexible in behavior than they did with heterosexuality. While some women in the study changed their sexual identity at times, they generally went back to identifying as bisexual or “unlabeled.”

This is a really exciting study that shows how flexible sexuality and identity is. How it is dynamic and always-evolving, rather than a stagnant label that we apply to our forehead in adolescence with super duper crazy glue for the rest of our lives. While some would have an argument against touting monogamous relationships as something to excel towards, I still like the finding that bisexually identified women are more likely to be in a monogamous relationship for the mere fact that it disproves the myth that bisexual women are unstable, greedy, or just unable to maintain a committed relationship. It would definitely be interesting to see a similar study but regarding polyamorous relationships. My classmate Sunny is currently doing his thesis on poly triads, when he is finished I will surely bug him to let me publish a summary of the results on this here blog.

For all you sex geeks, here’s a link to the pdf of this article: link.

New French AIDS Awareness Ad

First off, yea yea, I know, it’s been a long time since I’ve posted. But hey, I’m a working man and I’m busy studying the ways of Sexuality via SF State. I’ve been focusing on my thesis, hoping to finish it by May.

I have also been writing for Deviant Nation, where recently I interviewed the spectacular Crispin Glover as well as co-wrote an article on Sex Drive with the lovely Aradia, model extraordinaire of Deviant Nation and all-knowing in the field of biological and physiological aspects of sexuality.

So read up my lovelies.

As I’ve posted before, the French are pretty adept at making striking, cute, poignant or intense AIDS awareness advertisements.

For a look at their animated ads Click Here

I wanted to share with you their latest ad entitled “Le Poison.” Unfortunately I cannot embed it in this blog. The ad starts with multiple seductive shots of gorgeous bodies writhing and undulating against each other, but as the camera pulls back it reveals something else that comes with sex.

Click here to watch.

Is this effective? What sort of emotions come up for you as you watch this? Is this sex-positive or sex-nagative? Is it just realistic (sans hourglass)? Is it a clever reference to American soap opera Days of Our Lives?
