I had the same thoughts until I reread an article about it. It also bears mention that SE Asia has a long tradition of 3 genders, while we in the west do not. So, culturally it is likely not such a big deal to have an "other" or whatever classification.

That is another good point, Bionca. There are a lot of different cultural customs and beliefs out there, and I learn more about them from time to time. Not all of them are good(at least from my perspective), but certainly not all of them are bad either. They could look at our customs and beliefs and feel the exact same way(and they probably do).
