Putting the B back into LGBTQ: Biphobia often neglected in IDAHOTB commemorations
As the world commemorates the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia (IDAHOTB) this month, OUT is highlighting the scourge of biphobia, which is often overlooked.
IDAHOTB has been observed annually since 2005 every 17 May and is an opportunity to bring awareness to the prejudice faced by the world’s LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer / questioning) community. The date is significant; it marks the decision to remove homosexuality from the International Classification of Diseases of the World Health Organisation (WHO) in 1990.
