Matt Walsh went all the way to a Masai tribe in Kenya to ask them about transgender and nonbinary. Half of them were confused and the other half were laughing. Definitely check that clip out.

Also definitely censorship in action there.

As someone who is Chinese I can affirm that there are distinct roles for each sex and the word for sex and gender is the same. It's just the west and some fa'alangitawa tribe that hasn't advanced past the stone age that is trying to muddy it up

Is it right there aren't sexed pronouns either?

We refer to men as 他, women as 她. If the sex is unknown or if we're referring to both men and women we use the male pronoun. There is no "Gender neutral"
