Based on Australian research on 60 bisexual men and women, my article ‘Negotiating (Non)Monogamy: Bisexuality and Intimate Relationships’ (Journal of Bisexuality, Volume 4, Numbers 1/2, 2004) examined the variety of ways participants arranged their intimate relationships. The article demonstrated that although some participants were monogamous, others had negotiated some level of ‘openness’ in their relationships. It was found that, for those in open relationships, issues such as jealousy, setting boundaries and communicating needs to partners often arose, but despite this, participants worked hard to overcome these difficulties through honesty and communication. The findings of this article were significant in addressing the common stereotypes of bisexual men and women as dishonest, untrustworthy partners
