Happy Pride to all my two spirited brothers and sisters
In indigenous culture, two spirited generally means that it identifies an individual with a masculine and feminine spirit. It acknowledges that the individual has multiple ways of being without seeing them better or worse than any other person. In my culture, everyone no matter where they lean sexually have elements of a masculine and feminine spirit, some are stronger in one way, others are strong in the other way and some equally carry both sides with them.
I think every culture was this way thousands of years ago because as human animals, we have always and will forever have a variety of individuals. All our ancestors whether Native American, European, Asian or African understood that and it’s only in recent times (relatively speaking) that this attitude changed.
It’s good to see that the world is going back to how we all once lived and appreciated one another.
Here’s a recent photo I saw in the news of pride celebration I thought was amazing … Two-Spirit couple Adrian Matthias Stevens and Sean Snyder
