Third Sex, Third Gender: Beyond Sexual Dimorphism in Culture and History First Paperback Edition

The seller sent this promptly and it came in excellent condition just as it was described. Thank you. I would definitely buy from this seller again.

Is there really a third gender? Is there gender at all. How do we fit into the worlds vision. Are women supposed to fit into the world model or be who they are? Are men supposed to do the same? A long read but worth it.

Really good reading.

It is very interesting to read this kind of book, especially about eunuchs in Byzantion. However I think it is easier to compile such an omnibus-styled collective volume. I prefer monographic coherent book written by one author , e.g. John Boswell's " Christianity, Social Tolerance and Homosexuality " et "Same-Sex Union " , Eva Cantarella's "La bisessualita nel mondo antico" , Bernard Sergent's "L'homosexualite dans la mythologie grecque" or so. This book contains various "Third Sex" like stereotyped berdaches in America, hijuras in India, transvestists in Europe etc.---- Each article is interesting of course. Although in Japan our ancestors never introduced eunuch-system from China , we have many books exclusively concentrated on eunuchus.So I'd like to read special works focused on Greco-Roman & Byzantine eunuchs. If somebody knows these kinds of subject series,please kindly tell me the titles.

Great book, although it does demand some real focus to determine what's being said in places.
