However, evidence indicates there may be diversity in risk for mental health outcomes within sexual minority youth. This study examined mental health outcomes in 1,933 young people (aged 16 − 25 years) who used the online mental health platform ReachOut. We explored mental health outcomes (mental health service use and hospitalization, depression, anxiety, and stress), and risk for suicide among heterosexual, gay/lesbian, bisexual, queer+, and questioning young people. Compared to their heterosexual peers, bisexual, queer+, and questioning young people had significantly higher levels of depression, anxiety, and risk for suicide. Bisexual and queer+ young people also had significantly higher levels of stress compared to heterosexual youth. Bisexual and young people questioning their sexuality were significantly more likely to have a previous mental health hospitalization. Gay/lesbian youth did not significantly differ from heterosexuals on depression, anxiety, stress, or previous hospitalization, but did for risk of suicide. These findings underscore the importance of measuring, reporting, and addressing the distinct mental health experiences of sexual minority youth.","PeriodicalId":46888,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Bisexuality","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41315533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Negative attitudes and stereotypes about bisexual people can contribute to identity uncertainty and experiences of stigma and discrimination, which impact the disclosure of bisexual identity. This qualitative study sought to explore the factors that influence the decision to come out for bisexual individuals. Six participants (three cisgender women and three cisgender men) were interviewed. A grounded theory analysis was conducted. Themes culminated with a core category, revealing that the decision to come out as bisexual is based on the experiences of navigating contextual and psychological factors and weighing a desire to be authentic against perceived consequences of disclosure. Implications for those who identify as bisexual, for mental health clinicians working with bisexual clients, and for the general public are discussed.

A gap in the literature exists regarding bi + people’s definitions and processes of locating bi + belonging and community connection. The current research addresses this gap in the literature, investigating these topics through a qualitative focus group project with 46 bi + individuals. Using a modified constructivist grounded theory approach, results from nine focus groups yielded four core categories depicting experiences of belonging and community connection for bi + participants, including: 1) Process and pathways to belonging; 2) Barriers to belonging; 3) Distinct offerings of bisexual-specific community; and 4) Unique belonging experiences of bisexual Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color (BIPOC).

Findings revealed that many participants attributed their experiences of sexual assault to binegativity, which manifested as hypersexualization, “corrective rape,” perpetrator insecurity, and interpersonal hostility. In addition, participants described intersections between binegativity and other forms of oppression, including gendered racism, gendered binegativity, ableism, sizeism, and classism, and shared how they believed that these intersecting forms of oppression made them more vulnerable to sexual assault. Participants also described the ways in which sexual assault affected their understanding of and experience with their bisexual identity. For example, many participants expressed a number of relational and sexual affects (e.g., greater caution when entering into relationships with people of a certain gender, sexual discomfort, decreased sexual agency) and effects on their bisexual identity (e.g., identity disclosure process, questions about multiple aspects of their identities).

Participants were cisgender women (n = 152) and genderqueer or gender-nonbinary participants who were assigned female at birth (n = 10) aged 18 to 35.

This study examined what clinicians know about pansexuality and their clinical experiences; 84 clinicians from different cultural backgrounds with an age range from 20-60 years old were examined. Participants were recruited through purposive sampling. Recruitment for the study utilized email advertisements containing a description of the study. Further, participants responded to open-ended survey questions related to working therapeutically with pansexual youth. Thematic analysis was utilized to gain a deeper understanding of specific ideologies, biases, and knowledge that these clinicians held. Pertinent themes emerged from the thematic analysis: unique challenges experienced by pansexual youth, working therapeutically with pansexual youth, and therapists’ beliefs and assumptions. The results showcased the need for clinicians to be more mindful of biases, to further their training on sexual minority populations, and for overall advocacy. Clinical implications suggest professional mental health clinicians, therapists, and psychologists to implement trainings and practices that include pansexual youth and the LGBTQ + community without personal biases and assumptions in therapy sessions or during assessments.","PeriodicalId":46888,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Bisexuality","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41610387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Heterosexual Indian and Australian participants (n = 472; 254 males) completed a series of measures indexing participants’ attitudes toward lesbians, gay men and bisexual individuals. Overall, compared to Australians, Indians held attitudes that were more negative and less favorable toward same-sex attracted individuals. Australians held more negative attitudes toward bisexual than toward lesbian/gay individuals, a difference that did not occur for Indian participants. Additionally, male participants from Australia and India reported attitudes that were more negative and less favorable toward men who were gay or bisexual in comparison to women of either sexual orientation.

In the second theme entitled Educated and enlightened pansexuals we report how participants portrayed pansexual and panromantic identities as requiring an advanced understanding of gender and sexuality. This meant that those who engaged in these terms were represented as educated and enlightened.
