To those still reluctant to come out, I offer this; there will never be a perfect time, only time you waste living a lie and time you cherish living your truth. We don't know how much time we have on this earth so cherish it.
Ryan Russell, an NFL free agent, opened up about his sexual orientation, saying he is bisexual. He is the only male athlete in the 4 major professional sports leagues to openly identify as LGBTQ.

Bisexual and bi+ characters often seem rare and obscure in both straight and gay tv/film when we are the largest part of the LGBTQ+ community. Generally, there are not enough bi-characters to begin with.

Sex-positivity is synonymous with safe sex and knowing your status.
