Talk:Yellow Head

Break it up
I think it would make a lot of sense to break up this article into three separate articles, considering that it has three sections for the three different prominent people named Yellow Head.Spottacus 18:31, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Breaking it up is fine, but please keep in mind that in the scope of things, the two chiefs are not as well known as the berdache in American history, though all three are very important in Ojibwe history. CJLippert 23:36, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Pronouns
Should we go ahead and change all the "he" pronouns to "she" for the berdache who was culturally considered a woman rather than a man? CJLippert 23:36, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I think not; regardless of anyone's feelings or social sensibilities, the article should refer to individuals in their actual (biological) gender. Spottacus 04:09, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Biology does not equal gender. Gender is socially constructed. We should use 'she' or a gender neutral pronoun to refer to the 2 spirit, as that is what she would have been refered to in her time by her people. Joshsaltaire (talk) 08:57, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

[Sex is defined as biological. Gender is defined as role. Therefor biological gender is not correct and the pronoun should be replaced by the gender role of the subject in question] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.124.120.139 (talk) 20:54, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
