Genuinely interested and want to get educated on this - is the idea that each individual has a male and female spirits (and gender is a spectrum on that scale)? How did the First Nations people determine how to divide the traditional gender roles, for example who the hunters chasing the prey are and who stays back to take care of the young ones? Or are these two seperated topics that are mixed up in my head?
I'm not an expert on the topic; it's just something I've read about and wanted to share. Wouldn't want to get the more intricate details wrong. I think it's great you want to learn more though. It's fascinating stuff. I'd recommend checking out better sources than I.
