Abstract

"Uneven: Nine Lives that Redefined Bisexuality" by Sam Mills explores the historical complexities of bisexuality, tracing its evolution from a term used to describe species with both male and female reproductive organs to its modern understanding as attraction to more than one gender. The book highlights the struggles of individuals attracted to multiple genders, including well-known artists and writers, in navigating societal expectations and erasure. While the author asserts the bisexuality of her subjects, the text also acknowledges the challenges of defining bisexuality and the need to address bi-erasure in historical narratives.
