Manchester, England--"Everyone is born with a bisexual potential", according to gay rights activist, Peter Tatchell. "Bisexuality is the future".

Tatchell was addressing the 6th International Bisexual Conference in Manchester on Saturday, August 26. His keynote speech was entitled: "Beyond Homosexuality & Heterosexuality".

"Exclusive heterosexuality and exclusive homosexuality will eventually decline, with a majority of future generations being open to erotic and emotional attraction to both men and women.

"In a future more sexually enlightened and emancipated epoch, the separate, rigid divisions between straight and gay will be supplanted by a more all-inclusive, polymorphous bisexuality.

"As homophobia declines and sexual orientation ceases to be an issue, more and more people are bound to be bisexual.

"Straights will feel less inhibited about same-sex relationships and gays will feel less obsessed with maintaining their pure homosexual identity. Sexual fluidity and flexibility will become the norm", said Peter Tatchell.
