Bisexuality — Tag Meaning
A canonical tag for works thematically engaged with bisexuality: realization arcs, biphobia confronted, or the texture of bi experience. It signals the orientation is examined, not just present.
What to Expect From "Bisexuality" Fics
Bisexuality as subject, often through a character's self-discovery in a same-gender relationship after opposite-gender history or vice versa. Identity-affirming framing predominates.

Sexuality Crisis
