Cool article, although I’m not exactly sure some of its evidence is all that relevant? Like, it’s supposed to be about other genders, but then it just starts going into like sexuality which seemed out of place (or maybe out order?)
I think the article is referring to “gender roles”. That pre-colonization, the gender roles of a person in Africa were very different from the man/woman colonizer hell exported from the European capitalist church society. There was less rigid mapping for a persons sexual categorization, which the whitemen could not compute and deemed “deviant”. This is seen in other places before Euro capitalism reached far away lands. I wish the article was longer and more in depth.

Ah I see now, I think I misunderstood the title somewhat then
