Abstract

ABSTRACT This article – originally published in a Dutch peer-reviewed journal but updated with extra theoretical discussions – is a tentative exploration of the positions that bisexuality/plurisexuality can occupy in romantic relationships. On the basis of interviews with 31 bisexual/plurisexual people (21 women, 10 men), I discuss how bisexuality is experienced in romantic relationships. Romantic relationships are not just an agreement between partners, but are also constituted by networks of emotions, feelings, and meanings from oneself, one’s partner(s), the social environment, and the wider social world. This article discusses the experiences of bisexual/plurisexual people’s in romantic relationships and reveals the importance of antibisexual stereotypes, mononormativity, and the institutionalization of monogamy as contextual factors but also interpersonal and intrapsychic factors in negotiations of bisexuality/plurisexuality in relations. Partners are, as the experiences of the participants show, not just “passive actors” but may also proactively create space for bisexuality/plurisexuality in romantic relationships.
恋爱关系中的双性恋/多性恋:为双性恋/多性恋创造空间?
这篇文章最初发表在荷兰同行评议的杂志上,但更新了额外的理论讨论,是对双性恋/多性恋在浪漫关系中可能占据的位置的初步探索。基于对31名双性恋/多元性恋者(21名女性,10名男性)的采访,我讨论了在浪漫关系中双性恋是如何经历的。浪漫的关系不仅仅是伴侣之间的协议,而且是由自己、伴侣、社会环境和更广泛的社会世界的情感、感觉和意义网络构成的。本文讨论了双性恋/多性恋者在恋爱关系中的经历,并揭示了反双性恋刻板印象、单一规范和一夫一妻制制度化在双性恋/多性恋关系谈判中的重要性,这些因素不仅是背景因素,也是人际因素和心理因素。正如参与者的经历所表明的那样,伴侣不仅仅是“被动的演员”,还可能主动地在恋爱关系中为双性恋/多性恋创造空间。
