Wow..... 47 hits -- all of them gay bloggers.
Accepting their fantasies, why would Western culture wish to recognize and then mimic the traditions of mud-dwelling tribes?
As for "hijra", Wiki references "genetically male females" of India... and that's about all.
Nobody is debating the sexual rights of those with Klinefelter syndrome, Marfan, or any such afflicted individuals. Those are anomalies, genetic diseases... not a cultural practice.
ok... my mistake; spelling is different in slovenian and english
Try berdache it'll give you out 62700 hits.
and... try this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hijra_(India)
Western culture was defined by greek philosophy and roman law, both cultures accepted homosexuality. It wasn't untill the third branch, the judeo-christian religion came into play that homosexuality started to be persecuted.
Besides... you were referring to everyone not accepting homosexual marriage; I'm just proving your statement wrong.
