Mission statement: Calling bisexuals 'fencesitters' has been a way of marginalizing us, of placing us outside gay/lesbian and straight cultures by saying that we haven't made a decision about our sexuality. 'The fence' is all about bisexual women reclaiming this position and speaking from your unique viewpoints that traverse straight and gay/lesbian cultures, but also allow us to have spaces of our own. 'The fence' can be a positive and powerful place, and this zine is for the women who have decided to stay there!!
