Background

For further information see the Summary of animated and anime characters

Bisexuality is a sexual orientation that refers to the romantic and/or sexual attraction towards people of more than one gender (historically towards men and women). Throughout history, numerous bisexual characters have appeared in television series, including cartoons, anime, and web series. Bisexual characters have been featured in animation and anime for years. Despite this representation, "not all queer presentation" is created equal as one scholar noted, with the representation of bisexual and transgender characters lagging behind lesbians and gay men in some respects,[85] with this representation important in the U.S. political climate while GLAAD called for Hollywood to produce more characters with LGBTQ characters.[86][87]
