It’s easy for people to meet online and start dating. There are many dating sites where trans people can get their soul hearts and their love life. Transgender dating sites are many. Trans people should make use of it to get the love they desire. For one to live a happy life full of love, he/she has to get the right person. To get the person might be hectic and cumbersome. The transgender dating app and trans dating site can help leverage this issue.

Transgender Dating App

It’s a trusted app that offers a good platform for trans dating. It has hookups for all categories according to what you want or desire. I strongly recommend it for trans women and men who want to get people whom they wish to have in life. If you are looking for a romantic and serious relationship that will put a smile on your face, then this is the way to go. While on these media accounts, whether on iOS or Android version, you feel free to be yourself and narrate your history but there explaining what you feel comfortable with on the platform. You will be in a position to know each other on the site and build strong relationships there. The transgender dating app is a community of people interested in getting partners who are trans. You will get a transman or woman there. Both of you commit to each other fully. If you have been having issues with getting people who will appreciate you as a transwoman or a transman then, don't hesitate to join the transgender dating app community.

Transsexual Dating Site

It's another platform where the business happens on a serious note. Here you will find serious relationships that will give you the love that you desire. It connects singles who are looking for serious, stable, and long-lasting commitments. It is an open forum for all people trans or not. It has members who are not trans but interested and also in need of dating trans people. You are free to venture into it and feel free to establish strong connections that will enable you to get what you desire. All you need to do is to make a strong profile that you can change later as time goes by.

Dating Sites for a Transgender Woman

There are many dating sites for transgender women available on the web. All you need to do is to be cautious with which dating site you want to use to find love. All these platforms offer almost the same privileges and will enable you to find at least someone almost to the one you were looking for on the trans woman dating site. Of course, it can’t be 100% of what you desire but a good percentage of the person you wished to have. Make a good profile that will sell you out and attract the type of guy you need. Be cautious of con people who may use these platforms to blackmail you. Some transgender dating sites get improvised to reduce the risks of having these effects of blackmailing.

The dating sites for transwomen and trans people at a higher percentage will comprise of members who have a feeling or are in love with trans people.

Be cautious about how you disclose yourself. Here are some of the precautions you are supposed to keep in mind while searching for your soulmate online.

Security Measures on a Dating Site

The following measures will not guarantee you 100% safety while on a dating site but will give you hints on how to operate safely on a transgender woman dating site. Having a glimpse of it will be of help to you personally.

    — Unique Dating Site Profile

The photos you use on trans dating sites should be unique. Don't use the same profile you use on other social platforms like Instagram and Facebook. You will be an easy target as anyone can easily track your other social media accounts and get to know more about you. You will get exposed to fraud and other threats. Place people in darkness by not allowing them to locate your other social media accounts.

    —Be Extra Vigilant About Suspicious People

As a transgender woman, be alert on any profiles that you suspect. In case you realize one, then report the person to the admins of the dating sites. You can also go ahead and block that individual. Blocking will give you great peace of mind while working online and at night. Connect with people you are comfortable with around you. 

    —Decline Financial Requests

On the trans dating sites, flee from accounts that request financial help. It is a clear indicator that the profile isn't for the aim of finding a soulmate but conning people. Do thorough investigators before you offer any financial support. If it makes sense, then lend out a helping hand. If not, you better stay with your sweat all through.

By any chance you get an account that requests for personal financial records as an individual on the transgender dating sites, then you are at liberty to decide on what to do. Decide whether to block him at the dating site and report the number as a scam.

Online Dating Precautions on the First Date

    —Do detailed background research

Have a clear view of the person your intent to have on a dating site. Set your goals and conditions that this person has to meet. When you get your soulmate and before you even meet him, have a piece of background information about him. Dating sites for the transgender woman may not give the exact picture of that person. Thorough research will enable you to know him beyond the dating sites and other social media platforms. They make you aware of the kind of person you are meeting on your first date.

Research has to be on the exact location the person is requesting you to meet him. Know why that person is insisting on that particular area. Have some history of the restaurant you will sit in. The last precaution in this category is that you must meet in a public place for security reasons. Dating sites for transgender will not guarantee you security on where you meet on your first date. It's upon you to ensure you meet at a place where you will be comfortable and secure. It will save you from being founded by conmen or being subducted.

    — Make Use of the Google Voice Number

Don't be in a hurry to give out your number to strangers. You can meet men or women. Use voice calls and messages offered by google. They will enable you to be private and, in any case, you decide to quit, nobody will disturb your peace of mind. Give out your number after the first date and after doing a thorough investigation on the person who is receiving your number. Give out after you are sure of his intentions on the dating sites and you.

Make at least two to three video calls to know the physical appearance of that person. It will enable you to be able to recognize the person on the first date quickly when going on a blind date. Video calls make one reduce the problem of catfishing by a person who is personification to be someone else. Video calls enable one to read the non-verbal cues about someone that will depict his hidden characters. You will be in a position to know the person well.

    —Use Your Means of Transport

Agree on the dating area and time of the meeting. It should be an individual responsibility to avail himself or herself at the venue at the agreed time. Don't accept rides offered by the person you are meeting for the first time. It will be risky since you don't know the person and his intentions for you. Human trafficking and abduction are real.

If you have your vehicle, then drive yourself, and if you don't have one, then use the public means. You will be safe.

    — Don’t Be Too Confidential About the Date

Have someone you trust and with whom you can share your secrets. Apart from the two of you who are dating, have a third party who is aware of your date. Third-party people are vital as they will give out your details and the details of the person you are meeting in case of any danger. If possible, you can have a friend accompany you to the date but will give the two of you some space to discuss your issues. Third-persons make it hard for that stranger you are meeting to harm you. Be confidential about your sensitive tips. The stranger shouldn’t know you before the two of you meet.

    — Develop a Defense Mechanism

Strategize and come up with a viable defense mechanism in case you get attacked on your first date. You may use pepper spray that you can use to defend yourself. You can also have some crude weapons that you can easily access in case your life is in danger. The defense mechanism, weapons should be confidential and, no other person, including the person you have a date with, can access it easily or even spot it fast.

    — Stay Fresh and Sober

People make a big mistake on their first date. Don't go for the date while you are not sober. Others go for the date and get alcoholic drinks. It could be a big trap that you may not be able to escape. While drunk, you can’t make vivid decisions. You won’t be in a position to defend yourself physically when attacked. Staying sober is a great thing to keep in mind. Be also keen on the drinks and foods served. You may get yourself dragged through them and, you get yourself in trouble.

Online dating sites are fine when keenly observed. A woman tends to be more vulnerable than men. As a woman on any dating site, there are incidences of physical violence, stalking, and rape on the first date outside the dating site for transgender women. Safety should come first and foremost. The few tips I have shared here will help you in and outside the transgender app and other sites for transgender dating. Have a blast as you search for your special someone through these trans-sexual and transgender dating sites. Remember to be cautious since not all people on the dating site for transgender women may have ill motives. Watch out for your safety.

It had been quite an excruciating experience in the dating world, faced with disappointments and heartaches. But I decided not to give up on my journey of finding my soulmate. I wanted to try something new and have a unique experience; you never know love comes when you least expect it.

I signed for a transgender dating site and immediately downloaded its trans dating app. I spiced up my dating profile and found this beautiful, blonde-haired attractive, and charming trans woman. Our first date was a romantic candlelit dinner in a fancy restaurant. I have learned over time that first impressions do matter, and you should have seen me. I was dressed to kill, ready to meet my perfect match. I was too excited and nervous to meet her.

As my date walked in, I was astonished as she looked way too beautiful than in pictures. We immediately clicked, we had interesting talks on various topics, the table was filled with laughter and endless giggles. It was quite a fulfilling night, way much than I expected. As time went by, I came to fall in love with her and understand her more. I now understood why many men had hitches when dating a trans woman. Here are some ways to help you be a better partner to your trans girlfriend and even nail dating a trans woman if it's your first time.

Develop interesting conversational topics

Before going to my first date, I remember to myself I would not under any circumstance ask my partner about her sexuality or her transitioning journey unless she brings it up herself. I imagined going to the first date and my sexuality is brought up; it would make me uncomfortable.

When dating a trans woman, try as much as possible to avoid talking about their sexuality or gender reassignment. Everyone goes through a different life journey, and you don't know what wound your partner is trying to heal from. The only time you can speak on their sexuality is when they allow you to. If you have any lingering questions as you continue knowing each other, bring them up in a sensitive, caring, and polite way.

You can talk about various things on your dates and physical activities, and you can talk about each other hobbies and interests.

Be Yourself on the First Date

When going on your first date, you know how you are incredibly nervous to the point you are afraid of talking or being yourself. One thing I have realized when going to date be yourself. Try as much as possible to steer up a conversation to avoid pauses that will make your partner feel cautious about themselves.

If you are a chatty individual naturally, don't shy away from talking. The same applies if you don't like chatting a lot, try as much as you can to have a conversation. Usually, the body language and talking pattern can help one identify if you are comfortable or not. You don't want your date to feel uncomfortable by how you relate and talk to them.

Be Courteous

The transgender community has had its rough times in society. You've heard cases of discrimination, abuse, and violence meted on the trans community and LGBTQIA as a whole. These make them very cautious of anyone who wants to be around them. Any politeness and kindness go a long way.

When with your partner, be a gentleman and make her comfortable. Even when visiting friends or family, make sure they deal with her politely and with kindness. Please don't insist on bringing her around people who make her feel uncomfortable or self-cautious. You need to protect your lady.

She is not your Sexual Fantasy

I can't say this enough, dating a trans woman is like dating any other woman. When registering in an MTF dating site, find your soulmate, and not fulfill your insatiable sexual fantasy.

7 out of 10 trans women will tell you they get weird sexual advances to form straight guys in their trans dating site message section.

Understand your partner's sexuality

There is always this confusion that since trans women are part of the LGQBTIA community, they are gay. This is not the case; a transgender person is born with either male or female sexual organs and features and decides to change into another gender. When dating a trans woman, understand that she is a trans woman, don't confuse her for a gay man, make this clear with everyone around you if they may not have this understanding.

When dating a trans woman, you are still a straight man; it doesn't make you a member of the LGBTQIA community, though it doesn't hurt to be one either.

Being a trans doesn't define a person

Please get to know your date first before jumping to conclusions based on their gender transitioning. Most trans women are scared of being dumped on the first date because they opened up about their gender. Interact with your date and get to know and understand their extraordinary personality.

In case they open up, please don't turn the date into a Q & A session to fulfill your trans research. No one would appreciate ifs a stranger turns their life into google. You are allowed to be curious, but not annoyingly and uncomfortably.

Don't keep your trans partner a secret

Not everyone will get why you are dating a trans woman. It's not the public opinion you are after. It's all about you and your partner and how you love and care for each other. Go out on dates with her, hold her hand while walking, have fun stuff to do outdoors that other couples do. Hang out with other teams, and doing all these will make your partner feel like you genuinely care for their happiness, and you are not afraid to show them off to the world.

Don't be afraid to take your relationship to the next level in fear of your family's say about your partner.

Treat a trans woman with the same respect you have for other ladies

Recently, I asked a straight guy friend of mine if he can opt to date a trans woman. The guy told me that "His toxic masculinity can only be handled by a girly girl who is a real submissive woman and not a trans woman." I was left wondering why men are viewing trans women with less respect as opposed to other ladies. Trans women have feelings too. They are someone else's sisters, wives, mothers, and friends. I bet you wouldn't like it if your sister gets disrespected just because they are trans. They face discrimination violence, and it would be best if they have a peaceful and respectful environment around them.

Another guy said, "A trans woman is masculine like and can end up beating me like a guy" This is a wrong view of the trans women world. Just like other ladies, they are soft and tender towards the male gender. Society needs to change its' perspective on trans gender people.

Not all trans women are the same

Imagine if your date stood you up because you have the same hairstyle as his ex. That’s messed up because no one is the same as the other. We are all different in one way or another. And that applies to trans women too. They might have gone under the same procedure to get to where they are now, but that doesn’t make them the same.

They have different bodies and personalities. Please don’t go around viewing one trans woman the same as another who wronged you. Get to know them before hating on them all. And don’t assume that they all have the same body structure because all are trans. The way you view a trans is not the exact way your friend will view them.

Respect a trans woman decision

Transitioning to their preferred gender is already a decision that they have to live with all their lives. You don’t need to question why they did the procedure or why they are the way they are. It takes courage and high self-esteem for one to make such life-changing steps and all they will need after is support from their partners and loved ones.

Give them a reason to believe that they made the right decision. Please don’t make their lives hard or regretful. I know you’d hate for someone to mess up with your life.

Transgender dating is exciting, and it's pretty much like any other kind of dating; nothing so special about it. It is one thrill that has to be experienced to be understood. Trans women will rock your world and will give you a new experience. The only thing that a man starting on this journey of trans dating has to do is show up with a pleasant disposition to the date, have an open mind, and look for love. It is simple, uncomplicated, and beautiful.

How to Cope with the Problems

Well, then how do we cope with these challenges we encounter on transgender dating apps?

For one, we need to remind ourselves that not everyone is as informed about the topic as we are. When in the past I reacted negatively and hurt after an invasive question, it caused confusion. Of course, I have the right to communicate when another person’s actions have caused me harm. Yet at the same time, situations like this offer unique moments to educate others.

I have experimented with various approaches, from cautious to confident. Think about which option appeals to you and fits your temperament. Are you more straight-forward, pun intended? Do you prefer euphemisms, or smaller, sincere steps when breaching the topic of transgender dating?

How you address the subject also depends on the situation. The longer you spend on ts dating sites, the more you learn to read others. The cis man asking about my hypothetical dinky, for instance, struck me as someone who appreciates directness. So I told him in clear terms about my identity. Others ask more cautiously, and I adapt my replies towards them.

Unless, of course, I feel too hurt or offended or uncomfortable to continue any sort of conversation. In this case, make use of the function to block users. It is there for you and your safety. Reporting them might also be an option.

What I have also found helpful is to have a list of resources and links, both in English and other languages you speak on ts dating sites. In that case, when you see the chance to educate someone about transgender dating, or that they are, in fact, on a dating site for transgender women, men, and other folks, but you lack the time and energy to engage… you can simply send a link to the information you want the other person to know.

I doubt that most of the people I sent these to actually bothered to read them. Yet that is not my concern – I can only ensure that I do whatever aligns with my principles and my goals.

Speaking of, a great place to nip many problems in the bud is your profile. If you are on a dating site for transgender women, men and people of other identities, chances are you can highlight certain aspects of your life that pertain to your gender.

Amongst hobbies and interests, consider how your photos and personal details come across to visitors of your profile. How do you pose? How are you dressed?

I found that the more classically feminine I dress, the more surprised people are when I talk to them about my trans* and nonbinary identity. Presenting in a more gender-neutral way and fashion instead draws attention from potential partners whose attitude towards gender roles is less conservative.

Which, yes, is problematic as well. We all want the ability to be ourselves on ts dating sites, that’s why we are looking to find transgender dating apps in the first place. Having to edit our self-expression always carries the risk that we lose ourselves in a performance that conflicts with our genuine selves.

Where to Go From Here

Where does this leave us with regard to the problems in transgender dating?

I, for one, have come to the realization that there is no ‘perfect solution’ to dating as a transgender person. Identity is a dynamic process, so it evolves just as much as the transgender dating apps on offer.

This means we all have to try different approaches, give new apps and ts dating sites a chance, see what people we encounter, and adjust our actions according to our experiences and feelings.

Online dating is never a quick fix, regardless of your gender. As long as we are honest with ourselves and respect our own boundaries and feelings, the problems we encounter along the way won’t deter us from finding love. Accept them, deal with them… and move forward.

Technology has brought with it significant change; swiping left or right on your smartphone lands you a future spouse. Many people are looking for love online daily, so how do you stand out? Here are a few tips to help you find a life partner using a transgender dating app.

Catchy Photo

It isn't delightful to meet someone that looks different from their picture. It would help if you did not use deceiving photographs in your profile; use the latest image that captures how you currently look. Select a picture where your features are visible. Try also to post a picture of you doing what you love, be it cooking, going on a vacation, etc.

Bio

Fully describe yourself, your hobbies, goals, personality, and traits. Talk about what you do and the activities you enjoy. The description should not be lengthy since not many people have a long reading span; keep it short and sweet. Avoid boasting and making inappropriate comments.

Don't limit yourself

Be active

Something that has affected transgender women because from birth they are assigned to be male whereas in society they identify themselves as female. Transgender women are the most judged people on earth, due to their gender difference.

Being born in the wrong body is not a choice that someone is entitled to thus you will get that most of the transgender women find it had to love or find someone who loves them as they are.

So in a case where the conversation has started and your having second thoughts about this guy because whatever they are saying is not in match with their profile, then you need to be concerned.

Avoid sharing your details with people on transgender dating site, until you get to know each other better. This safety tip protects one from cone men and women on the dating sites.

It is always advisable that first dates should be in a public place to avoid being coned or other bad things to happen to you.

 A laptop, phone, or tablet can't show you a person's true nature; it will mask who they are. Below is a way to help you navigate the use of a transgender dating site safely.

  Unfamiliar photo

In filling in your details, don't use the same profile photo you use in other social media accounts; use one which is unique and not on any social media platform.

  Do not disclose your personal information 

When creating your profile, leave out all details that can point out who you are, such as social media handles, contact information, etc.

  Use the app 

It is advisable to keep all communication through the app; you may find someone, and after a couple of dates, start to feel comfortable and decide to take the conversation out of the app. Yes, it is convenient to do so, but it is also dangerous. When the relationship doesn't work out, you are safe since the other party doesn't have your number; maintaining communication inside the app offers you protection until you fully know the person.

  Get a Google phone number 

After going on a few dates with this person, it's only normal to change numbers eventually.  You can set up a Google phone number and forward it to your phone; this is safe than giving your cell phone number.

  Be cautions when meeting

While using a dating site for trans woman, you always have to be on high alert. It's not advisable to let someone you have met online to know where you live. When you guys have a date, meet in a public place and use your means of transportation. Before going out for the date, let someone close to you know where you are going and how long the date will last. During the date, share any alarming scenario or any change of plan with a friend or relative.

Don't leave your drink halfway when using the restrooms, every time you walk out, ensure you have finished your drink or food, or get a fresh one. The first few dates are advisable to keep them short. At any point, you feel your safety is compromised exit the date immediately.

Put your safety first when using a transgender dating site to look for a lifetime partner. There are many creepy people out here hiding behind their keyboards.

When a transgender woman finally agrees to a first date, you will definitely be on cloud nine. However, now comes the tricky part: Where do you go on your first outing together? Being prepared for your first date is crucial to its success. The first date should be casual, but not so laid back that it seems unplanned.

Your first date with a transgender woman should give you a chance to chat and get to know each other more. Therefore, you should choose a place with a good atmosphere that gives the two of you a chance to converse freely. If you do not have any ideas for a good first date location, continue reading the following tips to find one.

This is the simple yet rewarding location for a first date. Choosing a good bar can be a little tricky, so choosing a location with a relaxed or intimate atmosphere is best. An ideal bar for the first date should be dimly lit and relatively quiet. This works well because it creates a good ambiance and actually allows you to hear each other during conversation.

Meeting for coffee is another great first date idea. If you are on a tight budget, this is ideal because coffee is relatively inexpensive. The simplicity of a coffee date is another positive attribute because, with fewer variables, your date is more likely to end successfully. Given that coffee dates are almost always in the morning or afternoon, it makes things a bit more casual and friendly than an evening date. However, if you want to increase the romance, you can choose a coffee shop with a more intimate vibe.

A dinner date is one of the best ways to add a bit of romance to your first date with a transgender woman. Although this idea sounds like a no-brainer, many people actually get it wrong because they pick the wrong venue. For example, it is highly recommended that you avoid fancy restaurants because your date might expect nothing short of five-star treatment on every date. Keep things relatively casual, to begin with, and save the fancy places for special occasions.

A day at an amusement park is another perfect first date idea. It provides you and your partner with plenty of time to talk and have fun. When people have fun, they tend to let their guard down. As a result, you will get to know more about your date as a person. Additionally, unlike the other ideas, being at an amusement park offers many opportunities for physical contact with your date.

Be Proud of Your Identity

You have to accept yourself before other start accepting you as a man. Societal discrimination and apathy are a part and parcel of transitioning. Do not let that intimidate you. You have to tell yourself that it’s perfectly normal to identity with a gender that is different from the one assigned to you at birth time.

Once you are comfortable with your identity, it’s important to go even a step ahead and celebrate it. Remember that you are unique and different. And it’s the habit of society to criticize everything that is unique and out of the box. But once they realize how valuable that thing is, they get crazy about it. That’s the way society works. So, once you start becoming proud of your identity and begin to revel in it, societal apathy will mean nothing to you.

People who are trying to make you conscious will shut up because you are not getting conscious! Accepting yourself is the first step in your journey of transition from female to male.

Begin Your Transformation by Coming Out

People in your immediate circle need some time to get used to the male you. Your new life as a male might be unexpected for your friends and family, even if they support your decision. So, start by coming out as soon as you can. Take folks who are close to you into confidence. Tell them clearly about your newfound identity and the life you are going to live from now on.

This might be difficult because you might have a family that has issues with your identity. You are probably scared that they will not accept this. Well, you have to learn to be a bit tough here. It’s your life and your choice. You can try and convince your family for sure but you have to be willing to go solo. For someone who has a woman’s body biologically, declaring that from now on, they are going to live and behave like a man in front of their family is not going to immediately get them the understanding they deserve.

Your family might be even hostile to you when you come out in the open. So be prepared for anything. It is very important to have a set of people who genuinely support you and your identity. These people will become a bridge between you and society. They can be your friends, relatives, family members, anyone.

But it’s important to come out in the open with your identity because even after your transformation, your friends and family will take time to get used to the new you. Social acceptance will be a slow process. You have to just keep going on. Do not be disheartened by temporary troubles or roadblocks. As long as you are consistently embracing your new life as a male, it’s all good.

Start Dressing and Behaving Like a Guy

This is a very important component of your transitioning. Even if you are mentally prepared to undergo a transition and have come out in the open, it can be very difficult to discard those old mannerisms you have been so used to.

You feel like a guy. You know it in your heart that you are a man. But if you continue to dress in women’s clothes, people around you would obviously not accept your masculinity. So, it is important to change your outward appearance too.

Begin to dress in men’s clothes. Start observing the behaviour of guys around you. Pay attention to their facial expressions, body language, the way they walk. These little cues will help you learn how to project a masculine image.

The internet too can give you a lot of information on how to incorporate masculinity in your day-to-day behaviour. For buying men’s clothing, check out what other guys on the street are wearing. And then pick clothes that would suit your appearance and build and would highlight your masculinity.

You might feel a bit awkward at first but if you keep at it, you will soon get used to it. And there will come a time when behaving like a man will come naturally to you. It won’t seem like you are acting or trying too hard. You already felt like a man in your heart. But with time, you will automatically start behaving like one externally as well.

Look for Professional Help

Your physical transformation is a very important part of transitioning. Of course, whether you want to undergo a medical transformation or not is totally your call. But if you are constantly anxious about not looking like a man enough physically, then surgery can help you get rid of that confusion.

You should first consult a therapist who would help you figure out the emotional and psychological problems you might be going through. The idea of transitioning from female to male can throw anyone’s mind into chaos and confusion. It’s a difficult state to be in. Your body is craving for an identity that is different from the biological identity assigned to you at birth. All this can get very complicated for your mind. So, a therapist will help you with the emotional and mental aspect of your transitioning.

Then you should look for a reputed and professional doctor who can offer you the best advice on the probable route you should follow for physical transformation from a female to male.

Two-spirit is a gender that is found in only North American who fulfills one of many mixed gender roles found traditionally among many Native Americans and Canadian First Nations indigenous groups. The mixed gender roles encompassed by the term historically included wearing the clothing and performing the work associated with both men and women. This English term emerged in 1990 out of the third annual inter-tribal Native American/First Nations gay/lesbian American conference in Winnipeg. 

A direct translation of the Ojibwe term, Niizh manidoowag, "two-spirited" or "two-spirit" is usually used to indicate a person whose body has a masculine spirit and a feminine spirit. The term can also be used more abstractly, to designate the presence of two contrasting human spirits or two contrasting animal spirits (which, depending on the culture, might be Eagle and Coyote). Will Roscoe writes that male and female berdaches have been "documented in over 130 tribes, in every region of North America, among every type of native culture."The term berdache was coined by western anthropologists and used until the late 20th century, mainly to describe feminine Native Americans assigned male at birth. 

The term is however inaccurate and can nowadays be considered offensive. Non-natives who use this identity are often accused of "appropriating Native culture." The history of two-spirits among Indigenous American culture dates back thousands, of years and has been documented in more than 130 North American tribes. Throughout history, a person who was recognized as two-spirit was someone who identified with both male and female gender roles, and so two-spirit is essentially a third gender recognized in Indigenous cultures. 

The perspective among Indigenous Americans was that having this third gender was a strength their society benefited from. In the Zuni culture, a person's gender was not assigned at birth but was grown into 3 or 4 years of age. Two-spirits were not thought of as just a man or just a woman but as embodying characteristics of both genders in a single person, making them a more whole human being.

This Two-Spirits encourages the belief that, by avoiding the pressures surrounding an individual, they are capable of establishing their own identity. This identity for native Two-Spirit individuals arises from an acceptance of their native cultural values and a rejection of Western values. This rejection specifically applies to Western conventions regarding race and sexual identity as the Two-Spirit person’s identity is maintained by their sexual orientation as both male and female and their commitment to their culture or ethnicity.
