In a time where relationships come in all shapes and sizes, it is no longer possible to rely on the traditional monogamous heterosexual framework to understand other types of relationships. Particularly, this is the case for mental health professionals who often lack training in non-heteronormative sexualities and relationships. Bringing in more complexity, both in and outside the therapy room are bisexual women's relationships often residing in the shadows of binegativity and invisibility. Based on qualitative research conducted through intensive interviewing of self-identified bisexual women, this book offers unique insight into the construction of their contemporary relationships. The theory emerging from the research illuminates how bisexual women engage in different dimensions of negotiation in their relationships that are geared towards facilitating the achievement of their desired sexual, emotional, and social existence. For all those interested in the study of bisexuality and women's relationships, as well as psychotherapists working with this population, the book provides a novel perspective into these arenas.
