Reclaiming the LGBTQ Heritage within the Souls of Native Americans

Did you know that there was once a time when Native communities not only accepted gays and lesbians–but revered them because they embodied two spirits: male and female?

Believe it. And, I explore this suppressed and nearly-forgotten truth in the latest The W.O.E. Report, my exclusive column in the current edition of Baltimore Gay Life. Here’s a link to the online version of the magazine. My article is on page 20, so you have to go to page 20 after going here.

I would love to hear about gay Native Americans. I am an older closet gay ( I hate it , but Family reasons ). I love beautiful photos of gay native Americans in sey attire. . I am a Christian and a political conservative . Itis too bad they do not know that the liberties are for all in our Nation. The religious zealots against gays are wrong as I studied the bible , not just read it or quote it. The liberal Democrats support gay causes more and I love that but I think our Nation’s security suffers under them I want a secured Nation but one who loves LGBT people and know there are good and bad in gays and straights. Too many people bashing gays are secretly getting gay sex on the side, That is being hypocritical
