 For many years, the Lambda Literary Awards did not have a category for bisexual literary works, which was finally established in 2006 after lobbying by BiNet USA.Although some bisexuality-related works, such as the anthology "", were nominated for the awards prior to the creation of bisexual categories, they competed in gay or lesbian categories.Alternative approaches to the concept of bisexuality have been developed that expand the definition of sexual identity outward from a "this "or" that" mentality to a "this "and" that" mentality.
