Nonbinary? X-jenda? — History of nonbinary categories in Japan feat. Sociologist Kyoko Takeuchi

Jun 18, 2025

--

Sociologist Kyoko Takeuchi-san has just published their Ph.D. dessertation-turned-masterpiece, Living Nonbinary: A History of the Categorization of Gender/Sexual Minorities, based on my doctoral dissertation.

On June 15, 2025, I invited Takeuchi-san to a discussion event with the members of ProgrezTribe*. The video below is the interview we did before the event as part of event promotion, but Takeuchi-san mentioned some very interesting things during the interview. So I thought I would share it here with you.

*ProgrezTribe is an English/Japanese bilingual Discord community for queer/feminist/leftist people to interact and discuss social issues with each other in simple language.
