The Other Side of Passing

I find feminine males as valid an identity as macho males and that works as well for our FTM brothers and feminine females.

It's funny that you mention it. On PBS a few nights ago there was a documentary called "Two Spirts" which mentinoed how the Navajo's ascribed four possible genders to people: maculine men, feminine women, feminine men, and mascuine women. The two "additional genders" were not terms for mocking people, but indeed their members were considered special.
