Short note. Not sure if it’s common knowledge but native Americans were way ahead of us on gender.
“ Before point of contact with European colonizers, it is thought that all indigenous societies in North America recognized five distinct genders amongst their people: Male, female, transgender, Two Spirit female, and Two Spirit male.”
“ The ability to look at the world from the perspectives of both the male and female spirit was generally looked upon as a gift, something to be valued.”

Then of course a load of self righteous idiots decided all of their culture was [censored] and had to be destroyed.
