Episode 21 - Bi History & Bi Erasure with Mel Reeve

The Bisexual Agenda

Shakespeare was Bi, Queer people can be biphobic, and bisexuality is freedom! This week I’m joined by Mel Reeve, writer, archivist & founder of Bi History! PSA: There’s no tarot segment this week because we only had an hour but - I did guess Mel’s starsign correctly in the first five minutes. Follow the pod on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebisexualagendapod/ Content Warnings: Biphobia, bi erasure, bi exclusion in queer spaces, homophobia, homophobic slurs, transphobia, higher rates of sexual assault/domestic violence/abuse experienced by bisexual people and queer people, abuse within queer relationships. I briefly mention throwing up randomly one day. Please message me on IG if there's anything missing from this list.
