I ask if he's ever considered gender reassignment. He says no. He describes his gender identification and bisexuality in the following way:
"My feeling is that there are hormonal triggers in the womb. For me, hermaphrodites are proof that things don't always go according to plan. I keep arguing we're all on some kind of continuum. Some are hard-wired male or female and others are somewhere in between. After a period feeling schizoid I decided I'd just be me. I'm more male than female, but if I want to go out in a frock I will."
