In our podcast Wait a minute !, let’s find our weekly meeting Everything is explained, which talks about sexuality, health and society. Today, we are talking about bisexuality, pansexuality, with Mathilde Ramadier. This author, journalist, comic book writer, published the essay Living fluidly, When women emancipate themselves from heterosexualityto Faubourg editions (19.90 euros). A book in which she evokes this long taboo sexual orientation, but also the stereotypes of bisexual people. She asserts that “living fluidly” is “a powerful vector of self-affirmation, of openness to others”, and constitutes “a new feminist horizon”.
“Fluidity goes beyond sexuality”
In this interview, to listen to above, Mathilde Ramadier first returns to the terms of bisexuality, pansexuality, and fluidity. Taking up the Freudian thesis which affirms “that we are all psychically bisexual”, she also returns to the limits of the latter.
Bisexual people face many critics from “both camps [hétérosexuel et homosexuel] “, according to the author. Among them, those who consider this orientation as “the sign of a lukewarm indetermination”, or that it represents “a hiatus in the recent history of female sexuality”.
Mathilde Ramadier also believes that bisexuality, or pansexuality, makes it possible to discover a greater diversity and freedom of relationships, both human and sexual, because “fluidity goes beyond sexuality”.
