  1. I like the two spirit notation in the lgb etc expression. It's a wonderful way to understand transgender.

    1. @ Boud -- Yes, the indigenous concept of "two spirit" encompasses transgender and all variations of gender identity, as well as our concepts of gay, lesbian and bisexual. It's an all-purpose concept!

  3. Beautiful indeed. They are doing life-saving work by advocating for El Jibbity 2S youth. Fantastic sash and kokoshnik style crown - that's superior needle work!
