Focusing on the concept of berdaches, William Roscoe delves into the unique role of Native American individuals embodying both genders, challenging traditional gender norms. Rather than facing ostracism, these individuals were often embraced by numerous tribes, taking on significant roles such as artists, healers, and leaders, and sometimes achieving a sacred status. Through case studies and a blend of biography and ethnohistory, Roscoe offers theoretical insights into gender diversity, engaging readers while integrating anthropology, sociology, and queer studies to broaden perspectives on gender.
