If someone asked you to name the biggest bisexual, who comes to mind? Maybe Halsey, Alan Cumming, Billie Eilish, or Billie Joe Armstrong? Perhaps Megan Fox? All fine choices. The consensus answer across the web is probably Lady Gaga, and for good reason. She is, after all, a global megastar. But if we’re talking about size, the true title of “biggest” bisexual from the most titanic bi creatures to ever live on Earth: whales.

A version of this review was originally published in Queer Majority. Why? It’s a simple question. Some might say a childish one. Indeed, “Why?” is often the first question a person learns in life. And yet it also remains the most profound and unanswerable of all questions. Armed with only these three letters, any child can reduce even the most learned to a state of embarrassing, spluttering cluelessness within the span of a few repetitions.

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 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.

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 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.

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.

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...

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.
