honestly; what's not clicking? this is such a clear topic. all of these special "third sex" communities are always just feminine men and more feminine men. they have always existed because homosexuality has always existed. these very special gender spirited bodies also have special privileges in accessing spaces which are not open for women. they are still in the male class, they still enjoy the privileges of what being male gives them.

this this from the article:

"The roots of the burrnesha tradition originate from the Kanun, an ancient constitution used in Kosovo and northern Albania in the 15th century, upon which Albanian society was organised. Under these patriarchal laws, women were considered their husband's property.

"They didn't have the right to decide their own destiny, or to choose their own lives," says Aferdita Onuzi, an ethnographer who has studied the burrneshat.

"If a girl was to be engaged - that was decided without ever asking her; neither the age at which she would be engaged, nor the person to whom she would be engaged."

There are still many misconceptions that swirl around the tradition. Becoming a sworn virgin was not commonly a decision based on sexuality or gender identity, but rather on a special social status it afforded those who took the oath.

"The choice of a girl to become a sworn virgin has nothing to do with sexuality, it is simply a choice to have another role, another position in the family," says Aferdita.

But becoming a burrnesha was also a way to escape an arranged marriage, without dishonouring the groom's family.

"This decision meant they could avoid a blood feud between two families," says Aferdita."

you’re going to define your standard of evidence to exclude anything presented before you. you’ve made several statements which are categorically false, but have not backed down on anything
