A survey carried out by ABC Triple Hack, among LGBT people in Australia, found that bisexual people are those who take the longest to publicly admit their sexual orientation. According to local indicators, only 40% of bi men are out and 48% of bi women are out of the closet in the oceanic country. When compared to lesbian women, for example, it is possible to make a parameter and see the difference: 86% of them admit the fact that they like women publicly. Among gays, 84% freely exercise their homosexuality. For Julia Taylor, a professional at the Australian Sex Research Center, who conducted the study, “when gays and lesbians come out, they feel more empowered and represented by the LGBT community that gives them a voice. It’s support that many bisexual people have trouble finding,” she said.
