Connect via IRC to us.undernet.org, channel #Bisex

Nominally a place where those who are bisexual, or curious about bisexuality, can come for support and serious conversation, this channel features chat that's rarely different from what you'd expect among any group of sharper-than-the-norm friends hanging out on the patio. Talk is generally about work, the news, this person's surgery or that person's visit. And inevitably well-sprinkled with banter and wisecracks. The fact that most (although not all) of the regulars are bisexual is almost incidental. What's more obvious is that they're warm, funny and bright. Their friendships go beyond the screen and visits among them are frequent. Those who come in looking for cybersex are promptly set straight or bounced out the electronic door. And it's not uncommon for a newcomer to put in hours of chat time without ever being asked "m or f?" If you drop by, be sure to register with the guardian bot (you'll find instructions when you enter) and read the bathroom wall. - E.L. SUBJECT
