Directed and produced by Arielle Loren, “The Bi-deology Project” is a compelling, exquisite documentary series that  explores the experiences of self-identified straight women who have dated men  who also engage in gay sex and dating. As the “heterosexual” relationship is  assumed to involve two strictly heterosexual individuals, what becomes the  expectation of partners who are attracted to both sexes? With the overly  sensationalized media focus on the “down low” bisexual man and the assumed  negative relationships involving heterosexual women and men who engage in  bisexual activity, the cast of “The Bi-deology Project” will discuss the  uniqueness of these mixed orientation relationships, both positive and negative,  and what heterosexual women can learn from men who don’t have an exclusive  straight sexual identity.
