Monosexual privilege checklist
27/08/2011byUser
Radical bi has put together a very interestingmonosexual privilege checklist of all the privileges which are associated with being attracted to only one gender (or claiming an identity on the basis of such attraction, such as heterosexual, lesbian or gay).
BiUK would be interested to hear people’s thoughts on this – seems like a useful awareness raising tool.
