ABSTRACT

Originally published in George, S. (1993) Women and Bisexuality, London: Scarlet Press. Reproduced by permission of Scarlet Press and the author. In her book Women and Bisexuality-the first book-length discussion of the subject ever to be published in Britain-George draws on interview and questionnaire data from almost 150 female respondents in the UK. (George also utilized the Klein Sexual Orientation Grid as part of this research-see chapter 6.) In the extracts below, George considers how some women in the UK come to accept or reject a bisexual identity for themselves.
