Hello,
My name is Laurel Watson, and I’m an assistant professor of Counseling Psychology at the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC), conducting research regarding bisexual women’s sexual experiences, discrimination, coping, and distress. In order to voluntarily participate in this study, you must a) identify as a bisexual woman (or identify with the experience of being a woman who is attracted to people of multiple genders), b) be 18 years of age or older, and c) live in the United States. We would like to provide TRIGGER WARNING because this survey asks questions about unwanted sexual experiences. We are very interested in hearing from bisexual WOMEN OF COLOR, although women from all racial and ethnic backgrounds are welcome to participate.
If you are interested in participating, you will be asked to complete an anonymous online survey that will take approximately 20 to 30 minutes, one time only. If you are interested in participating, please click on the following link:
