Bisexual individuals comprise a significant portion of the LGBT+ community, yet they remain relatively concealed and misunderstood. Robert Brooks Cohen endeavors to rectify this invisibility by presenting a compilation of interviews with Bi+ men who are or were married to women, fostering connections, understanding, and community among readers. Their experiences often go unnoticed as not queer enough, yet these men are queer, and they are actively challenging societal norms in significant and innovative ways. Authored by the host of Two Bi Guys, this book interweaves Robert's bisexual journey with the diverse narratives of other Bi+ men to promote the normalization of sexual fluidity and cultivate greater awareness and compassion. Each chapter is structured around the story of a bisexual married man, touching upon important themes prevalent in many individuals' journeys, including coming out, monogamy, intersectionality, porn, marriage, parenting, and finding community. Robert shares his insights, research, and analysis throughout, offering a personal perspective on these topics. This book aims to serve as a resource for bisexual and questioning men, allowing them to see their experiences represented. Furthermore, it is intended for their partners, family, and friends, as well as students, researchers, clinicians working with bisexual clients, and allies, to gain a deeper understanding of the unique challenges associated with this identity and provide meaningful support.
