		<description><![CDATA[The Bisexuality Report is now available in a Spanish translation. The translation work was done by Manuel Sebastia, and you can download El Informe sobre Bisexualidad, along with the original version of the report here. Meg Barker from BiUK said, &#8220;We hope that the translation proves useful and might prompt further discussion about the different situations of bisexual people and communities across the globe. &#8220;We also welcome further translations of the report which we’ll happily make available through the BiUK website.&#8221;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For the first time since the last European elections, all five mainstream political groups in the European Parliament have united to adopt a resolution to condemn homophobic laws &#8211; and biphobic, transphobic and homophobic discrimination in Europe. With support of the conservative EPP, social democrat S&#38;D, liberal ALDE, Greens/EFA and GUE/NGL it passed by a large majority (430 for, 105 against), In today’s resolution, the European Parliament “strongly condemns any discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity”. The Parliament adopted its official position after a debate on Tuesday, where MEPs almost unanimously asked the European Commission and European governments to better protect the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. The resolution particularly condemns recent laws or proposals in EU countries (Lithuania, Latvia, Hungary) and Council of Europe Member States Russia, Ukraine and Moldova, making it a penal or criminal offence to talk positively about homosexuality in public. These laws and proposals consider “gay propaganda” any support, tolerance or acceptance of LGBT people. They have already been used to arrest and fine citizens, and legitimise homophobia and sometimes violence, as was the case in Kiev and Saint Petersburg. Ulrike Lunacek MEP, Co-President of the LGBT Intergroup in the European Parliament, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Marja van Bijsterveldt, Minister of Education and LGBT equality in the Netherlands, next week opens a new bi exhibition and launch of a report on bi life in that country. A week from now (May 31st) the exhibition &#8220;Bi in Picture&#8221; in the Offsite Links in the Amsterdam Public Library opens. As the exhibition opens the Minister will welcome an accompanying report. It is set to break new ground in reflecting bi life in the Netherlands. Compiled by the Social and Cultural Planning Bureau and the National Bisexual Network (LNBi) the report finds that bisexuals, although in size perhaps the largest sexual minority, remain the most invisible. More than ten percent of Dutch people identify themselves as bisexual, but few openly identify as bi. Over 50% of bi men report that they have not come out to their partner. The exhibition and report give vivid examples of the diversity of bisexuals and bi life. Rather than focus only on the problems bis experience, it speaks of people&#8217;s positive experiences of being bi.]]></description>
