I found this to be a very affirming read, considering how often I personally stumbled upon bi erasure. This book is one I'll probably never stop recommending to friends, no matter their sexuality, gender or relationship status.

*Also, this book treats all multisexual identities as falling 'under the bi umbrella', so if you are pan, poly, omni, etc. this book was written with you in mind, but you may not enjoy the bi-prioritization in the language.

All of the content warnings are discussed in an academic sense; they are not described directly in detail as if someone is experiencing them, but rather, the author goes into depth about the vulerabilities of the bisexual (and queer) community.pythonesque's review
