Anna Paquin Reveals Bisexuality For Give A Damn

One of the sultry stars of True Blood, Anna Paquin, has certainly raised a few eyebrows. Along with Clay Aiken and Cyndi Lauper, Anna Paquin has publicly declared her sexuality.

The public service announcement where the Anna Paquin bisexual announcement happens is for the Give A Damn campaign against hate crimes. The Give A Damn organization got several celebrities together to speak in this PSA. The organization provides same day loans to certain GLBT causes.

What does it mean that Anna Paquin is bisexual

When she says she is bisexual, what does Anna Paquin mean? Generally, a person identifies as bisexual if they are attracted to both genders. Some bisexual people are equally attracted to both genders, while others have a slight preference for one or the other.

Both the Klein Sexual Orientation Grid and the Kinsey Scale attempt to put this spectrum of sexuality on a sliding scale. Both scales use a 0-6 scale; 0 is heterosexual and 6 is homosexual. Usually, individuals who rate themselves in the 3 – 5 range identify as bisexual.

Many celebrities join Anna Paquin

The Give a Damn campain tapped many celebrities in addition to Anna Paquin. Elton John, Wanda Sykes, Eric Roberts, Sharon Osbourne, Whoopi Goldberg, Kelly Osbourne, Jason Mraz, Kim Kardashian, Judith Light, Cynthia Nixon, and Kevin Alejandro all speak out in the advertisement. Some of these celebrities are openly queer, others are straight.

Speaking out against Hate Crimes and Don’t Ask Don’t Tell

The Public Service Announcement where the Anna Paquin bisexual announcement is made has two goals: First, it speaks out against hate crimes against GLBT (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender) individuals. It also takes on the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy without specifically mentioning it. This is a policy of kicking openly GLBT members of the U.S. military out of service, and it is currently under review. Cheap payday loans are often the only option GLBT youth or military members have to survive. The Give A Damn campaign wants to do something about problems like this.
