5.0 out of 5 stars Dear reader
I must say this book really open my mind and turned my world upside down and totally open me to a whole new world ,even though this world of Native Americans is very ancient and I found it very healthy and grounded.
5.0 out of 5 stars good read!
Excellent book that covers the subject clearly and in an easy to understand way. I enjoyed the book.

GREAT BOOK
5.0 out of 5 stars Good read on alternative genders in Indian Country
Great book and read regarding two spirits and their roles. Hoping for a volume 2 :)
2.0 out of 5 stars Dense, not terribly relatable.
As someone who was searching to feel at home in this book, I was disappointed in the dated nature of it and technical answers. It is thoughtful, but not enough. If you need a book for your thesis? This is probably a good book to look at for a few parts, but I feel like there must be something more personal out there for those of us seeking comfort and relatability in the word “two spirit”. If this book were written now, with so much work done around Nonbinary, and acceptance of non gender conformance, perhaps it would be a better read, but it’s dated(even though it’s not that long ago).
Excellent Academic Book about Two-Spirit Perspectives
This is an excellent and informative book that gives context and cultural perspectives from numerous well informed academics and professionals that speak from experience about two-spirit identity, as well as gender and sexuality perspectives. This book is not good for casual reading - it is intense, thought provoking and very academic.I appreciated the explanation in many of the chapters of this book about the importance of cultural context of two-spirit identity, as well as how gender and sexuality have been interpreted from a Western, ethnocentric perspective in much of the research that has been conducted in the past. As someone that is trying to gain a broad perspective on this topic, this book gave numerous insights to the topic, while offering diverse perspectives that were well researched and well thought out.I highly recommend this book to anyone that is seriously interested in learning more about berdache, Two-Spirit identity, as well as gender and sexuality in aboriginal cultures.
Fabulous
I did gender and sexuality studies at Uni this year and got this book for a paper I did. Each chapter is written by diffrent authors. It is academic but its a must read if your interested in exploring gender from a spiritual perspective. Just amazing I love the concept of your gender or sexuality as being a gift or a calling, some come to this through a visionary experience. Or by a deep searching. Equally it deserves 5 stars
Five Stars
I love the book, it helped me in my essay and I enjoy the subject of two-spiritedness
Two Spirit

itresting?
The topic is very interesting but unfortunately very dry reading!!!i wish there was a simpler book out there to explain this issue!!
