This monograph, ..., explores the common ground and differences between bisexuality and transgenderism. Contains essays on: biphobia and transphobia within the United States' gay and lesbian community; the bi/trans and subversive aspects of the works and images of cultural icons Angelina Jolie and Sandra Bernhardt; how bisexual and transgendered identities are socially constructed through relationships; the pomosexual play: why the concepts of postmodern sexuality fail to rewrite the construction of gender; why swingers who practice bisexual and transgender behavior are often disdained and marginalized by other GLBT people; suicidal thoughts and other mental health concerns of bisexual males and females and transgender people; eastern perspectives on sexual/gender identities: gender identity in Japan and Indonesia. Contains also interviews with four male-to-female transsexuals, two of whom are married to women who also participate in the discussion.
