Ep 118 – Work BiSHH

Full episodes, Health, Interviews, Society & Culture

World renowned BiCon, Steve Spencer, comes back to Hide and Seek to give Jon and Tim a look at both sides of Bi+ life, sex, relationships and the forthcoming BiSHH study. The Bisexual Sexual Health and HIV Study (BiSSH Study) will be run by the Kirby Institute, and will be the first Australian sexual health study specifically designed for Bi+ people. Steve also discusses the myths about bisexual privilege, and the gaps in support for bisexual health.

Community Links

For Melbourne folx, the Bi+ Community of Melbourne on Facebook and Melbourne Bi+ 40+ Events on Facebook are both great social spaces (and according to Steve, a source of memeable content ranging from puntastic to pants-wettingly funny)
Triple Bi Pass, Joy’s very own Bi+ panel show (off air atm, but can listen to their past episodes at joy.org.au/triplebipass)
Sydney Bi+ people can dive into the Sydney Bi+ Network  and Sydney Bisexual+ Community
And for more across the whole of Australia, the Bi Alliance Australia has great information

Steve previously appeared on Hide and Seek in Episode 47 – Knowing Me, Knowing U=U and Episode 15 – A Rush of Blood to the Head (Poppers)
