I can't recall ever seeing a fictional portrayal of a bisexual male.

They're certainly few and far between! Even compared to bi female characters, who aren't exactly overabundant either. Especially in well-written, non-cringe form.

Here's some examples of at least halfway decent fictional-bi-guy rep:

  • Det. Timothy Bayliss, Homicide: Life on the Street (till they managed to drop the ball anyway)
  • John Constantine, Legends of Tomorrow
  • Jacob Cullen & Christopher Ferris, As Meat Loves Salt by Maria McCann
  • Joe Macmillan, Halt and Catch Fire
  • Prince Oberyn Martell, Game of Thrones
  • Lieutenant Billy Prior, Regeneration Trilogy by Pat Barker
  • Darryl Whitefeather, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend

Yeah, it ain't much, but at this point I'm glad to find anything at all...

Wasn’t expecting this many bisexual male characters, but I’m happy to see this. I will never forget the sex scene between Prince Oberyn Martell, his wife and Loras's favourite gigolo, where Oberyn and the rent boy talked about being gay and being bisexual without using the terms.
