You just can't get over this ignorance thing, can you?
Many Native American tribes had institutions of gay marriage, infact institutionalized homosexuality.
The trickster-shaman Birdash from Native American tradition was often a man who (among other things) pursued other men sexually and even entered into marriages with other men that were just as binding as any other in the group. This tradition is caried out today in the at least the Muskoke tribe in Oklahoma- as I once knew one of their Birdashes.
And this is just the first example that I recall. I am sure here are plenty of others.
Look into it, Lee, for once. Before you speak.
