By Ethan Gregoire. While I was certain I was bisexual, I was hesitant to use that phrasing. At the same time, I didn’t want to confine myself to a label, and I craved the knowledge that there was a cut-and-dry label I could call home.

A Conversation on BConnected’s Rebrand During our transition from a Meetup with no formal structure to an all new nonprofit, I realized we needed to rebrand.

Autistic and queer. That’s what I call myself, and that’s what they call me. I’m no longer bound by pressure to prioritize being one or the other – I’m both.
