Owning Bisexuality: A Book Helps Clarify What Bi Identity Means to Me
Doing my part to expand bi-visibility.
Living honestly demands that I do my part to debunk the mythology, overcome the stigma, and mitigate the shame that invariably comes with men coming to terms with this very real, but all-too-often hidden sexual orientation called bisexuality.
In his excellent and entertaining audio memoir/manifesto Boy Slut, sex writer Zachary Zane throws open the curtain to share experience and insight he’s accumulated as a bisexual man.
Zane’s frank and honest confessions regarding his own sexual adventures — he’s not the least bit shy about airing some triple-X-rated details — implicitly give the reader (technically, the listener) permission to abandon any lingering embarrassment or shame.
To be real, simply by introducing himself as a “boy slut” from the get go, the author invites his audience into a no-shame, no-judgment zone.
But, Zane’s tome is much more than a sensationalistic tell-all. The author also takes a deep dive into bisexual identity — more specifically, what it means to identify as a bisexual man.
