The topic of gender has been an increasingly more and more talked about subject.
Whether society notices it or not there are gender roles and expectations coming at them from
every angle. Aidan Kai has experienced portraying himself as both male and female, he knows
about the pressures of society on gender more than most people. Since this interview is about a
bigender person who underwent a hormonal transition to male gender as well, I decided to take
to searching on what some of those definitions mean. Bigender has an overall loose definition of
a person who encompasses both male and female genders. Some people feel that they are both
genders at once, others feel that they are more fluid between the two. Transgender is defined as
one’s gender identity being different than their assigned sex at birth. In most articles and
interviews it seems that a common theme is that gender is just between that person and
themselves. They are undergoing whatever they need to feel happier with themselves and find a
way for themselves to be more comfortable and at home in their own bodies.
I decided to interview my friend, Aidan Kai, for this project. I have always looked up to him and
thought that he always had an interesting perspective on any and all topics. The topic of gender is
one that he has given an enormous amount of thought to and had his own trial and error process
on finding where he fits in. Aidan Kai is a 22 year old bigender transmasculine person, who went
through a female to male transition when he was just 20. I was interested in interviewing him to
find out more about his transition and more about being bigender.
