The meetings are Moderated and focused on a Discussion Topic that is generated with input from the folks around the circle (nb. we do also hold space for folks who might need to deal with an issue in the moment). We work hard to foster a safe space for non-judgemental peer support while actively valuing racial and gender diversity\, sex- and body-positivity\, as well as the litany of intersecting identities that folks walk into the room embracing. We welcome spouses and allies to join us at our meetings to discuss a topic around issues related to our lived experiences as “the silenced majority” in the LGBTQ+ realm. CW: Please note that BiRequest discussions can involve sensitive topics. For anyone who is triggered by anything in the discussion or needs to discuss a personal matter\, multiple BiRequest facilitators will be available at the meetings. Please talk to one of us.
