Traditionally the roles included wearing the clothing and performing the work of both male and female genders

what scholars generically refer to as 'Native American gender diversity' was a fundamental institution among most tribal peoples

Some examples of two-spirited people in history include accounts by Spanish conquistadors who spotted a two-spirited individual(s) in almost every village they entered in Central America

Two-spirits might have relationships with people of either sex
