   **Gender Identities**
**Gender identity** is a person's internal, deeply held sense of their own gender (or lack thereof). Unlike gender expression, gender identity is not visible to others. An individual's gender identity may or may not align with their birth assignment. Most people, whether cisgender or transgender, have a gender identity of male/man/boy or female/woman/girl. For others, their gender identity does not fit neatly into one of those binary terms, such as people who are non-binary or genderqueer.

   **Sexual Orientations**
**Sexual orientation**, also known as sexuality, refers to a person's sexual attractions (or lack thereof) toward others. It is not defined by sexual activity, which can be independent of a person's orientation. It also is not equivalent to a person's gender. While the most common terms are largely described using the gender binary of male or female, sexuality is more expansive than that.

   **Romantic Orientations**
**Romantic orientation** is related to a person's romantic attractions or desires, generally expressed in terms of which gender or genders a person is attracted to in relation to the person's own. It differs from one's sexual orientation, which is associated with sexual attractions, and a person's romantic and sexual orientation does not have to be the same. The Split Attraction Model is sometimes used to convey these differences.

**Bisexual**, or **bi**, is a sexual orientation encompassing attraction to multiple genders and/or sexes, with various definitions that include:

* Attraction to both men and women
* Attraction to two or more sexes or genders
* Attraction to one's own and at least one other gender or sex
* Attraction to all sexes or genders
* Attraction regardless of gender or sex

Some bisexual people experience different kinds of attraction to each gender or sex they are attracted to, or to different ones over time. Bisexuals may feel equally attracted to them or primarily attracted to one or more sex or gender. Bisexuality is also an umbrella term for multiple attractions, the definitions of which overlap. Individuals may have a preference in which specific label they use or draw distinctions between bisexuality and other labels, such as pansexual and omnisexual.

The **Bisexual Awareness Week**, also known as **#BiWeek**, is an annual celebration held from September 16–23. It is an extension of **Celebrate Bisexuality Day**, held annually on **September 23**.
