from National Geographic show Bugis' Five Genders
The Bugi culture recognizes five separate genders:
Makkunrai (feminine woman)
Oroane (masculine man)
Calabai (feminine man, or what we might see as M2F)
Calalai (masculine female, or what we might see as F2M)
Bissu (embodying male and female energies, revered as a shaman).
"All 5 genders must coexist for there to be universal harmony. If one of them is separated, the world becomes out of balance" - quoted from a Bissu priest/ess
The world needs us, whether it knows it or not. I believe our society will be a much better place when we recognize and celebrate the full diversity of gender.
