Bisexual people are people who are sexually and/or romantically attracted to people of more than one gender, often seen as being attracted both men and women, however, Bisexual people can be attracted to people of all genders not just men and women.

Bi Visibility Day, also known as International Celebrate Bisexuality Day, has been marked each year since 1999 to highlight biphobia and to help people find the bisexual community. This day can be used to share stories and experiences, both positive and negative, and to celebrate Bisexuality in all its forms.

Every year on National Coming Out Day, we celebrate coming out as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ) or as an ally. 

Coming out – whether it is as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or allied – STILL MATTERS. When people know someone who is LGBTQ, they are far more likely to support equality under the law. Beyond that, our stories can be powerful to each other. Coming out is a personal choice and should never be forced upon someone. This day can be used to take a look back on peoples coming out stories, see how far individuals and the LGBTQ+ community have come, share tools and tips for coming out and support those who may have been rejected or not accepted after coming out. 

Ace Week, formerly Asexual Awareness Week, is an international campaign dedicated to raising awareness and expanding education of asexuality.

Ace Week is driven by local community organizers. Each year, countless workshops, socials, and discussion groups are held in cities around the world.

What is asexuality?

An asexual person experiences little to no sexual attraction and/or sexual desire.

Our community uses the word ace to encompass anyone who fits within the spectrum of asexuality.

Intersex Awareness Day on October 26 marks the first public demonstration by intersex people in North America. Morgan Holmes and Max Beck of Intersex Society of North America (ISNA) were joined by allies from Transexual Menace and other organizations. It took place on October 26, 1996, in Boston, Massachusetts outside a conference of the American Academy of Pediatrics.  

Intersex people are often erased from the LGBTQ+ community for a number of reasons, so it is important to use this day to bring awareness to Intersex people and share ways that people can support and uplift Intersex people.
