Bisexual Women in the Christian Faith: Composing with a Complex Identity
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Research has shown that bisexual women of the Christian faith are faced with a quadruple minority status composed of first holding a non-heterosexual orientation; second by having a sexual attraction based on the person rather than their gender; third by being both a person of sexual minority and part of the Christian faith; and fourth being a woman in a patriarchal society. This grounded-theory based qualitative study aimed to clarify how this population composes with these multiple layers of oppression and with their complex identities. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with two Canadian Anglophone women between the ages of 18-50 who identify as bisexual and Christian. Results revealed seventeen emerging themes and three meaning units which inform the process by which these bisexual women have managed to compose with their complex identity comprised of being bisexual, Christian, and women. Based on the results of this study a model outlining the clinical dimensions to be considered for psychotherapy with this population was elaborated.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
