London Bisexual Group Programme

Here is the programme for the Discussion Group at LBG September 2000 to January 2001.

LBG meetings run from 8 to 10pm. The Discussion Group starts at 9pm, except on video nights when it starts at 8.30pm. Newcomers are welcome at any meeting of LBG, however the first meeting in each month is specifically designated as a Newcomers' meeting. On these occasions we will be discussing topics relevant to people who have not been to a bisexual group before.

8th September

BiCon reminiscence

What did we think of BiCon? What would we like to see from BiCon in the future?

15th September

Body Images

Do you have problems with your body image, or are you mostly comfortable with yourself? What of your body would you like to change? A workshop for anyone who's ever felt "fat and ugly".

22nd September

Wet social

Bring drinks (including alcohol) along to the group to celebrate International Celebrate Bisexuality Day.

29th September

Video: "Velvet Goldmine"

The story of a bisexual rock star in the 1970s. Allegedly based on the story of David Bowie.

Discovering naturism.

What's it like to be a naturist? Marc and Jean tell all in this workshop. Don't worry, no one will be taking their clothes off during it!

A gentle workshop intended to help us relax. No special equipment is required.

Video: "Wilde".

See Stephen Fry's excellent portrayal of the gay playwright Oscar Wilde. Very moving in places, bring tissues.

What do different people mean when they say they are in a "committed" relationship? What does "committment" mean in a bi context? What about those of us who are non-monogamous?
