I'm not so sure about that - I got the impression that they weren't that symmetric. If a Vingan is a woman who wants to occupy a male role, while a Nandani is a man who wants to be a woman then they might handle it differently. And that is what I took away from reading Storm Tribe (which means that it's probably true somewhere false somewhere else, even if my reading or memory are wrong- and YGWV anyway).

So it might be the case that a Vingan wanting to perform a female task might turn to Ernalda, while a Nandani wanting to perform a male task might turn to Vinga.             Received on Mon 02 Apr 2007 - 12:39:40 EEST
