míⁿ-qu-ga míxuga n. A man [sic] who acts as if he [sic] was a woman. [a traditional Umoⁿhoⁿ or Poⁿka Two-Spirit person, especially one who has a woman's gender role -- Binah Gordon] Páthiⁿ Noⁿpazhi heard of two [míxuga] among the Omahas, one in former days, the other in his own times. They are men [sic] who are considered mysterious, having been affected by the person in the moon. Consequently they are shunned by other [sic] men, who do not wish to catch the disease. They speak, dress, and work as women do. They are very proud: Kizhú Wakóⁿdagi. Louis Sansouci said that the míxuga took other [sic] men as their husbands. F. La Flèche knew one such man [sic], and gave the names of several men with whom he [sic] had lived. A Póⁿka child said, "Mízhiⁿga-ma núzhiⁿga-ma tígaxai hnóⁿdi míxuga." (If boys make a habit of playing with girls they are (or must be) míxuga.) This term may be rendered "hermaphrodite," when it refers to animals, as "temíxuga," a hermaphrodite buffalo. 1/27/10 7/15/22, 4:16 AM Binah Gordon
