When Men are Women: Manhood Among the Gabra Nomads of East Africa
John Colman Wood
This exploration of the cultural models of manhood examines the nomadic Gabra people of Kenya who denigrate women and feminine things yet regard their most prestigious men as women. In the study, the author offers insights into our own culture's understanding of gender and function in society.
