Apparently, this "two-spirited" comes from the 1990s - some homosexual activist had a dream that there was such a thing. So naturally, everyone had it shoved down his throat. Now this is the worst kind of cultural appropriation.
Imagine some weird pervert going to a bunch of Indians smoking a pipe and saying: "HEY MAN, I had a dream that you guys do gay stuff and that this is called 'being two-spirited'."
Yeah, there is some truth, but it looks and acts nothing like that is promoted. I was allowed into the women's society because I could weave in the Navajo Reservation. Even when I say this directly to people, I get someone claiming to be Cherokee and that I don't understand their culture. I tend to call them a Chizhiloshi after that.
Same with Polynesian. Yes, there are men doing womanly things like cleaning the house and clothes. It's literally called Women's Work in Samoan. But all the documentaries say I don't understand.
