Actor **Francois Arnaud**, known for his roles in *The Borgias* and *Schitt’s Creek,* came out as bisexual in a series of Instagram posts. Arnaud discussed his sexuality publicly for the first time and debunked myths surrounding bisexuality, saying bi+ people are ‘not confused and not disloyal’. He also pointed out the struggles of bisexual men, saying they are often rendered invisible as ‘masculinity is a fragile currency’, and that its ‘scary to give up your privilege’. He wished his follows a happy bisexual awareness week.

[Bi Week](https://www.scenemag.co.uk/celebrating-the-bisexual-community-biweek-2020/), which celebrates the bisexual, pansexual, queer and fluid community, was founded by **GLAAD**, the **Bisexual Resource Centre** and **Still Bisexual**. GLAAD said that Bi Week aims to highlight the experiences of bisexual+ people ‘while also celebrating the resiliency’ of the community. The hashtag #BiVisibilityDay was trending on Twitter on September 23, with celebrities such as **[Halsey](https://twitter.com/halsey/status/1308952867416334337?ref=scenemag.co.uk)** and **[mxmtoon](https://twitter.com/mxmtoon/status/1308919821065740289?ref=scenemag.co.uk)** sharing their experience of identifying as bisexual.

A handful of openly bisexual+ famous figures collaborated with GLAAD in 2017 to produce a video in support of bi+ youth, which can be seen here:
