#BiVisibilityDay SOME FACTS:
- we're not greedy
- we don't have to 'pick a side'
- we aren't half gay/half straight
- being in a straight relationship doesn't make us less/not bi
- we aren't more likely to cheat on you
- we're not pansexual
- we're valid
- we're real
It’s #BiVisibilityDay - Major love, respect and solidarity to the ‘B’ in #LGBTQ. Whether you’re out or not, you are just as valid and our community wouldn’t be the same without you.

Congratulations to @RuPaul and the entire @RuPaulsDragRace team for making history and winning Outstanding Reality Competition Program AND Best Host, so well deserved #Emmys
Heterosexual couples are in many kids shows, but when it’s suggested a character is gay people loose it. Considering the amount of #LGBTQ youth struggling with mental health and taking their own lives, this kind of representation could do so much good. Leave Bert and Ernie alone.
What do Prince Harry, @alexander_olly and Sex and the City's Samantha Jones all have in common?

Moment of appreciation for every corner of the #LGBTQ+ community. We might face different struggles, but we’ve got where we are today by standing together. Don’t let the actions of a few change the fact we are a community 🏳️🌈

New stats from @PHE_uk show a 17% drop in new HIV diagnoses in the UK, which is a 28% drop since 2015.
We have the tools to end HIV transmission in the UK – but we have to make the most of them to continue this progress #ImStoppingHIV
I’m so happy for the #LGBTQ community in India. This ruling frees almost one fifth of the worlds gay population. I just hope all the other countries that criminalise homosexuality are watching, because they’re next. One down, many more to go. We will get there #Section377
