Feminine gendered males who like men or the 'Homosexuals' can be divided into three parts:
- The transgendered males who like men -- the original third sex.
- The effeminate (but not transgendered) males who like men. When men's spaces were strong, these males existed as an inbetween between the men's spaces and the third sex... behaving like transgendered when in third sex spaces, and like men when in men's spaces. They rarely cross-dressed, and did so only in the third sex spaces.
- The 'straight-acting gay'. These males are partly feminine, partly masculine, but their masculinity is stronger than that of the effeminate male, but still superficial. When men's spaces were strong, they were part of the men's spaces, but would often interact with the third sex for sex. In the Westernised division between masculine 'straight' and 'feminine 'gay', they prefer to live as 'gays' rather than straight.
They believe themselves to be masculine, but this is because, the western society makes them feel masculinity is only skin deep and a matter of wearing clothes meant for men, and to adopt a couple of mannerisms. Therefore, they call themsevles 'straight acting'. However, meeting most of them makes it clear that they are 'different'.
