Um, this is a long shot here on
but for all I know there might be some bisexual academics here, or scientist/scholar types who focus on bisexuality, gender, queer, and polyamory issues. I'm one of the few non-academics who joined this new "Academic Bi" listserv; I mentioned my past and current involvement with bi activism in my intro. But everyone else is a scholar or professor or author or lecturer and I'm just a former grassroots activist.
Anyway on the off chance that anyone here is interested in this, or knows someone who might be, please share this letter.
Quote:
We are very excited to help announce Academic Bi an International (English-language) Mailing List/Yahoo Group, started by a Bi-identified Israeli Academic and Activist for the Discussion of and the Exchange of Information and Ideas about Topics related to Bisexual Theory, Queer Theory and the Academic Study of Bisexuality, Pansexuality, Fluidity, et. al. Other things that would be appropriate to Post to the Group include but are not limited to:
o Calls for Submissions
o Internships
o Scholarships
o Requests for Participants in Studies
o RFP's
o Announcements of Publications of Works pertaining to the subject(s)
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/academic_bi/
We see this List as an important "Also" rather than as an "Instead of" some of the older more established Academic LGBT Lists where it is Very Important to also keep Bisexual voices and we hope that there will be MUCH Cross-pollination.
Could we also ask all of you to Please Circulate This Information Widely to ALL LGBT & "Straight-but-not-narrow" venues and people who might be interested and would find this Additional Venue to be a useful tool.
Thank you

There is already a call for study participants who are in mixed marriages where one spouse is bisexual and the other is heterosexual. I can post that one too if anyone cares.
My husband did not care. And we would be perfect for the study. Ah well.
