Frank Ocean and Male Bisexuality

Luke Turner wrote a great piece for The Quietus on the prejudice against male bisexuality and the press surrounding R&B singer Frank Ocean's Tumblr post about his own sexuality:
"It seems to me that this reaction to Ocean's statement is symptomatic of our lack of sensitivity and understanding when it comes to human sexuality. The media and general discourse wants to place a definition and polarising assessment of sexuality that, for many of us, simply isn't part of our reality. Despite the gradual eroding of homophobia in British culture (and there's still a lot more distance left to cover on that front, despite what we're told) it seems to me that bisexuality is still very much a taboo, for women as well as men."
