'Two Spirit' is about Native Americans.........ya know........those pesky folks who lived on this land prior to white people invading..........
I kinda wish all these white folks would stop stealing cultural terms from Native Americans. Two spirit is not for white folks to use anytime they want. Try learning before you appropriate terms from other cultures. Two spirit literally means 'having both a masculine spirit and a feminine spirit'.
I don't personally know any white FtMs/transmen who claim they have a feminine spirit. They only claim a male spirit.
Do some research folks.........

And yes........my response was about cultural appropriation.
