To-do list for Bisexuality:

edit · history · watch · refresh

Here are some tasks you can do: Expand: Lead-in, Bisexuality in animals, Bisexuality in history (should carry forward from the past to the present; ultimately a summary of a daughter article) Other: Cite missing sources, see Bisexuality peer review for suggested article improvements The first section of the Description is confusing. There needs to be a description of how the terms "gender" and "sex" are used.

[edit] Bisexuality in Wicked?

I've recently read through Gregory Maguire's Wicked myself and can't remember any bisexual characters (certainly no significant bisexual characters) appearing in the novel. I haven't read its sequel, Son of a Witch, though, and I suppose I could be forgetting about something, so I thought I'd ask here first before removing it. Oh, and while I'm commenting, this talk page could probably stand to be archived, but I'll leave that up to a more frequent editor of the article (I wouldn't want to accidentally archive an ongoing discussion or anything). —Mears man (talk) 04:35, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

maguire actually touches on "non-hetero" sexuality in a few of his books. While not as blatent as Son of a Witch (where Liir is checking out a guy's butt while away from his pregnant wife/girlfriend), the reference in Wicked is during the discussion Elphaba has with her father when she comes back to Munchkinland to visit. Frex talks briefly about the unusual relationship between him, Melena, and Turtle Heart - the telling quote is, "We shared him." -ΖαππερΝαππερ ^Babel_Alexandria 18:55, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
