As a bisexual advocate, I have been arguing for the need for more resources and tools specifically for the bisexual community. This year, I have seen a couple of new tools come out (during National Coming out Day no less) that I wanted to share with folks and thought it was a great opportunity to create this post highlighting the bisexual resources that are out there. If you know of any that you think should be included, please drop me a line so I can include them! I am also adding here some of the key reports about the bisexual community as well as some fantastic organizations doing work in this area.
