Title: Two Spirit People
Post by: JohnAlex on November 14, 2011, 12:18:18 AM
I just wanted to share a youtube video/documentary about the Native American concepts of gender, sexuality and sexual orientation.  It's pretty fascinating to me the cultural differences.  If only our culture shared these views. 

Well, enjoy:

Yes but you forget culture  changes in time ,but the are more realistic to the fact we are all unique.
We all are so indoctrinated we even believe there are races!  We are ONE race with local differences.

I'll have to watch the video when I get some time but I've read up on two spirited people.

Yeah it would be wonderful if everyone had the same view but then we were taught by our higher education to hate things that are not "normal".

This is a truth I wish everyone would pay attention to. How ridiculous for us to think we are more than a single human race.
