“Party bisexual,” a new term growing in popularity to describe men or women who act out bisexual urges while under the influence of alcohol or drugs is getting a mixed reception.

The term “party bisexual” can describe those who identify as straight, but demonstrate an interest in people of their own sex when drunk. The term also applies to those who identify as gay, yet hit on the opposite sex while drunk, or to similarly unexpected couplings.

Some are calling the term progressive, a new recognition that bisexuals and bisexual feelings are more common than generally acknowledged.

But others, like 35-year-old bisexual Brad Brownfield, said the term seems derogatory and stereotypical.

“It seems to stigmatize the bisexual orientation as an irresponsible, party-based orientation,” he said. “I can assure people from personal experience that being bisexual does not equal being promiscuous, or make one more likely to party.”
