Sacred Transsexuals embraced in enlightened tribal cultures.

Tribal cultures are much more enlightened with their approach to bigender and transgendered individuals. In Lakota culture the two-souled shaman, or Winyanktehca, is highly revered and occupies a special place in tribal society. In native Aboriginal Australian culture, the Sistergirls or yimpininni are accepted by the tribe and take a more traditional female role.

The Winkte of Lakota Culture- 

revered as a transsexual shamanka

“Sistergirls have specific roles and responsibilities in communities, mainly to do with the raising of children, looking after the home and the elderly, and at feasts and celebrations they’re usually in the thick of it with cooking and decorating.

“It’s usually considered women’s work, but sistergirls are usually valued in these roles for their flair and expertise.”

In the Tiwi Islands Sistergirls make up 4% of the population. From the Berdache people of the Native American culture to the Fa’afafine of Polynesia, transsexual and bigendered individuals often have a special place in tribal cultures.

Transsexuals are embraced by tribal cultures

In western Judeo-christian society, no such status exists and trans individuals are treated as at best mentally ill or at worst an abomination. How much better would life be if we all returned to our tribal roots- sacred nudity, total body acceptance, living in harmony with nature and a society based on mutual respect and integrity. It sounds to me that we have not been making ‘progress’ but have been the unwitting stooges of global control through the illusionary person.
