17 Times TV Characters Actually Said They Were Bisexual

"It doesn't take an intellectual to get that I'm bisexual!"

There's been a big increase in bisexual characters on TV over the past years, and it's amazing.

However, it's still pretty rare for a TV character to say the words, "I'm bisexual," or to even acknowledge that they like more than one gender.

But the good news is that more TV shows are starting to openly discuss bisexuality and even have characters directly come out as bisexual! Here are 17 characters who were out as bisexual:

1. Miles Hollingsworth, Degrassi: Next Class

2. Darryl Whitefeather, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend

3. Rosa Diaz, Brooklyn Nine-Nine

4. Polo Benavent, Elite

5. Anna Taggaro, One Tree Hill

6. Callie Torres, Grey's Anatomy

7. Adam Alvaro, Jane the Virgin

8. Madeline Scott, Proven Innocent

9. Gael Martinez, Good Trouble

10. Remy "Thirteen" Hadley, House

11. Adam Groff, Sex Education

12. Petra Solano, Jane the Virgin

13. Brittany Pierce, Glee

14. Maya, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend

15. Michael Guerin, Roswell, New Mexico

16. Blake Moran, Madam Secretary

17. And finally, Moose Mason, Riverdale

Of course, a character never directly saying the words "I'm bisexual" doesn't make their sexuality any less valid! But it's still really nice to see more openly bi characters on TV — and I hope we get to see even more of them in the coming years.
