Abstract
ABSTRACTThis study explores social processes that prevent or delay and processes supporting the adoption of a bisexual identity among women who have been engaged in sexual activities with more than one gender in Germany. Starting from an interactionist perspective on sexual identities, data stemming from 12 qualitative interviews with German participants are analyzed. By citing and interpreting the narratives of interviewees, it is shown (1) how interaction partners affect bisexual labeling, (2) how bisexual identities are enacted in social surroundings, and (3) how drawing boundaries between sexual identities contributes to the process of sexual identification.
