Reviews for Bi the Way: The Bisexual Guide to Life

Bi the Way is the friendly introduction to all things bi that the world has needed for so long! Lois writes in an accessible, engaging, and informed way throughout, including helpful quotes from many other bi, pan, and queer people about their experiences and the ways in which their sexualities intersect with other aspects of their identities. If you've noticed yourself being attracted to more than one gender and want to explore what language to use, how to navigate outness and dating, and where to find community and support, this is absolutely the book for you. -- Meg-John Barker, author of Sexuality: A Graphic Guide and How to Understand Your Sexuality This excellent well thought out and balanced book is a much-needed addition to easy to access books around bi, pan and queer experience. This is a book that celebrates the glory of Bi life, takes a good hard look at some of the issues that Bi folk face on a daily bases and leaves us full of hope. -- Gscene Magazine
