We did these symbols for the entry on sexual minorities, but didn't have time to do them all.
If you let us know what the sign is for bisexuality, we can ask our artist nicely... but no guarantees!

You can't put links in Postings - sorry!
Perhaps you could put the link on your Personal Space and we can check it out from there?

Hmm. This is an interesting conversation. I'm sorry I missed it until now. Since I wrote my original guide entry on the words and symbols used to describe sexual minorities, consensus has formed on a bisexual symbol. I didn't include one before, because there was little consensus!
Though the original link was deleted, I would guess the person starting this thread refered to the set of triangles at the bottom of this page:

They're reminiscent of the old pink triangle and have the catchy name 'biangles.' They're pink on one side, blue on the other, and purple where the symbols overlap. It's a great improvement over previous symbols, which often confused bisexuality with polygamy.
Nobody seems to know where the biangles originally came from, but they're becoming more popular all the time. A bisexual pride flag was designed based on the same colors in 1998 by the organization BiNet.
