"Bisexuality is often misunderstood to be enforcing a binary when, in fact, bisexuality is the attraction to more than one gender. Nevertheless, biphobia still rages in modern society, brushed off as 'a phase.' Bisexual men can also be under a particular patriarchal pressure of masculinity which requires straight and gay relationships to exist seperately. So it's more important than ever to continue lifting up the voices and stories of bisexual people, especially underrepresented individuals."
"I think people are born bisexual, and it's just that our parents and society kind of veer us off into this feeling of 'Oh, I can't.' They say it's taboo. It's ingrained in our heads that it's bad, when it's not bad at all. It's a very beautiful thing."
"The second on our list of famous bisexual men is singer David Archuleta who first came out publicly in June 2021, previously saying that it was "important to share" his story to help other people who had a "religious upbringing". He recently released a new song which tells the story of him coming out and leaving the Mormon Church, which condemns. homosexual romantic and sexual activity as sinful. The song also chronicles how his mother left the church with him at the same time, supporting her son and his sexuality wholeheartedly."
Bisexual Visibility Day in 2025 falls on 23 September and calls attention to bisexual men as often-overlooked members of LGBTQ+. Bisexuality describes attraction to more than one gender rather than enforcing a binary. Biphobia persists and is frequently dismissed as 'a phase.' Bisexual men face specific patriarchal pressures around masculinity that enforce separations between straight and gay relationships. Continued visibility and celebration of bisexual people is necessary, especially for underrepresented individuals. Fifteen famous bisexual men are highlighted, including Billie Joe Armstrong, David Archuleta, and Ronen Rubinstein, noting public coming-out moments and supportive responses.
