Bi and Pretty in Pink: Bisexuality in Flamingos

2 weeks ago | bi.org | Jamie Paul

Everything about flamingos is queer in every sense of the term — from their stilt-like stick-thin legs, to their penchant for , to their flamboyant neon pink plumage, and their freewheeling bisexual group mating. Flamingos are what you’d get if a Pride Parade came to life as a bird or, more likely, if nature was simply very, very queer.
Dolphins, Like All Bisexuals, Are Misunderstood

1 month ago | bi.org | Jamie Paul

Dolphins are among the most intelligent and fascinating creatures on Earth — and also one of the most misunderstood. For thousands of years, people assumed they were fish — it wasn’t until the 18th century that scientists first realized they were mammals. Humans also mistake dolphin facial features, which remind us of a smile, as a sign of a dolphin’s mood or as evidence that dolphins are generally jolly and peaceful creatures.
Bonobos Know How to Party

1 month ago | bi.org | Jamie Paul

One of the most fascinating things about nature is that all life on Earth is genetically related, so when we learn about animals, we also learn about ourselves. This is true even of the tiniest and seemingly least human organisms. The extensively studied microscopic roundworm C. elegans has contributed to medical breakthroughs because even this one-millimeter nematode is a close enough relation to humans to be relevant. Even so, there are degrees to these things.
The 192-Year-Old Bi Tortoise Who’s Having More Sex Than You

1 month ago | bi.org | Jamie Paul

The world, history, and nature are filled with notable bisexuals. Our ever-growing archives at Bi.org catalog thousands, and we’re only just scratching the surface. But there’s never been a bisexual who was at once from the animal world, a celebrity among humans, and a part of living history quite like Jonathan the Tortoise. Jonathan was born in 1832 into a world alien to anyone today. Jonathan hatched before Darwin had ever seen a finch or written a word about evolution.
Las jirafas llevan la bisexualidad a nuevas alturas

2 months ago | bi.org | Jamie Paul

En el 2019, la diputada británica Dawn Butler llegó a los encabezados al afirmar que "el 90% de las jirafas son gay". Butler estaba haciendo argumentos a favor de los derechos LGBT y oponiéndose a la noción de que a las personas "se les enseña a ser gay", pero una vez sacado de contexto por la prensa, el comentario provocó un debate no sobre los derechos humanos, sino sobre la sexualidad de las jirafas. Resulta que la afirmación de Butler no es del todo cierta.
The 2025 Bi State of the Union

Feb 26, 2025 | bi.org | Jamie Paul

Dr. Jason Hodgson, an anthropologist and evolutionary geneticist at Anglia Ruskin University in England, recently made headlines when he said, “I predict that most people should actually be bisexual.” Citing the genetics of same-sex behavior and the well-established fact that bisexuality is incredibly common across the primate world, Hodson said, “I suspect most people would be slightly in the bisexual range if given the right social circumstances.” In other words, Hodson is proposing that...
From Lions to Tabbies, Bicuriosity Never Killed the Cat

Feb 13, 2025 | bi.org | Jamie Paul

We tend to paint cats with a broad brush, but there’s truly incredible diversity among felines. From alpine snow leopards climbing icy mountaintops to deadly jaguars prowling the Amazon Rainforest; from two-pound rusty-spotted cats to ; and from standoffish alley cats to the insatiably cuddly hairless sphynxes, cats come in every imaginable variety. But one thing that’s common across the feline world is bisexual behavior.
Thomas the Goose: Why Birds Spread Their Bisexual Wings

Jan 16, 2025 | bi.org | Jamie Paul

The humble goose is not one to be trifled with. They brawl with pedestrians, chase off soldiers, and defeat gorillas in single combat. They stone-cold stare down oncoming traffic without flinching. But they also love as hard as they fight, with a penchant for bi throuples. No gander typified these goosely qualities more than Thomas the Goose.
The Unicorn Scale: Dead Boy Detectives

Jan 8, 2025 | bi.org | Jamie Paul

As an editor at two queer publications, my email inbox can become quite chaotic. Folks are always pitching me articles, sending me drafts, or just giving me a piece of their mind — with varying degrees of sanity. Readers also send me stories they think should be covered or have been overlooked. One such tip caught my eye, about a recent — and recently canceled — bi-coded Netflix show Dead Boy Detectives (2024). The more I looked into it, the more fascinated I became.
