The Vezo people of Madagascar- Sarin' Ampela: men who are "images of women".


As young children, sarin' ampela prefer to spend time with girls rather than with boys, and learn to braid their friends' hair, carry water on their head, and so on. As adults, their identity is defined most crucially by the fact that their perform "women's jobs" and adopt "women's ways of doing things"...Sarin' ampela have sex amog themselves or with other men that are not sarin'ampela....practicing a "woman's job" or adopting a "female way of doing"is of primary importance in transforming a man into "the image of a woman".
