Shiri Eisner is a Mizrahi writer and activist based in Tel Aviv.[1][2] Eisner works towards deconstructing stereotypes attached to bisexuality arguing that their subversive power should be utilized rather than rejected by bisexual movements.[1] In her book, Bi: Notes for a Bisexual Revolution, Eisner writes about monosexual privilege, the harms it can cause in society, and the intersection of transgender people and bisexuality.[3][4] The book was nominated in 2014 for a "Lammy" from the Lambda Literary Awards.[5]
