❣️♀️Beloved Woman

Cherokee Beloved Woman Nancy Ward

Nancy Ward, or Nan'yehi (nan yay hee), is the most famous Cherokee Beloved Woman. The role of Beloved Woman, Ghigau (Ghee gah oo), was the highest a Cherokee woman could aspire to. A Ghigau had a voice and vote in General Council, leadership of the Woman's Council, the honor of preparing and serving the ceremonial Black Drink, the duty of ambassador of peace-negotiator, and the right to save the life of a prisoner already condemned to execution.

The Native American Cherokee The word Cherokee is believed to have evolved from a Choctaw word meaning "Cave People." It was picked up and used by Europeans and eventually accepted and adopted by Cherokees. Traditionally, the people now known as Cherokee refer to themselves as aniyun-wiya, a name usually translated as "the Real People," sometimes "the Original People."

The Role of the Cherokee Woman The Cherokee were matrilineal with a complex society structure. Clan kinship followed the mother's side of the family. The children grew up in the mother's house, and it was the duty of an uncle on the mother's side to teach the boys how to hunt, fish, and perform certain tribal duties. The women owned the houses and their furnishings. Marriages were carefully negotiated, but if a woman decided to divorce her spouse, she simply placed his belongings outside the house. Cherokee women also worked hard. They cared for the children, cooked, tended the house, tanned skins, wove baskets, and cultivated the fields. Men helped with some household chores like sewing, but they spent most of their time hunting.

Women in the Cherokee society were equal to men. This privilege led an Irishman named Adair who traded with the Cherokee from 1736-1743 to accuse the Cherokee of having a "petticoat government."

Princess Tsianina Red Feather

Tsianina Red Feather was not a "Princess." The Cherokee never had princesses. This is a concept based on European folktales and has no reality in Cherokee history and culture. Beloved women and high ranking women in a clan were treated with such reverence, that Europeans assumed they were some type of royalty.

Red Feather was born Florence Tsianina Evans on December 13,1882 in Eufallia (Oklahoma Territory) to Creek and Cherokee parents. All her 9 siblings were musical, but she was the one who stood out.

At age 14, she went to Denver to be trained to sing. There, she met the composer Charles Cadman and began touring with him at 16. She became a mezzo soprano virtuoso. While touring the United States, Canada, Paris and London, she wore native dress, braided her hair and wore a headband she beaded herself.

In 1918, she and Cadman debuted "Shanewis" (The Robin Woman) at the Metropolitan Opera; the cast received 22 curtain calls. Cadman based the opera on Native American stories told by Redfeather. Although this opera had many firsts, it became the first contemporary opera to be performed for a 2nd season at the Met.

The Robin Woman: Shanewis, 1918 - an opera in one act and two scenes by American composer Charles Cadman and Tsianina Redfeather Blackstone. Cadman called the work an "American opera."

Photo is Miss Anna Trainor, who later became Mrs. Anna Bennett. She was only Cherokee on her mother's side, but because it was the woman's bloodlines that determined kinship, she was considered Cherokee.

The title Ghigau also translates to "War Woman," and Nan'yehi (Nancy Ward) earned the title by taking up her husband's gun when he was slain in a battle against the Creeks and leading her people to victory. Another War Woman, Cuhtahlatah, won honor during the American Revolutionary period by leading Cherokee warriors to victory after her husband fell. She later joined in a vigorous war dance carrying her tomahawk and gun.

It was important to the Cherokee that their losses be compensated with the same number of prisoners, scalps, or lives. Woman led in the execution of prisoners. It was their right and responsibility as mothers. Women had the right to claim prisoners as slaves, adopt them as kin, or condemn them to death "with the wave of a swan's wing."

In the Cherokee society your Clan was your family. Children belonged to the entire Clan, and when orphaned were simply taken into a different household. Marriage within the clan was strictly forbidden, or pain of death. Marriages were often short term, and there was no punishment for divorce or adultery. Cherokee women were free to marry traders, surveyors, and soldiers, as well as their own tribesmen.

7 Cherokee Clans - L to R: 1.Wolf Clan 2.Long Hair Clan 3.Red Tail Hawk Clan 4.Blue Holly Clan 5.Deer Clan 6.Paint Clan 7.Wild Potato Clan

Cherokee girls learned by example how to be warriors and healers. They learned to weave baskets, tell stories, trade, and dance. They became mothers and wives, and learned their heritage. The Cherokee learned to adapt, and the women were the core of the Cherokee.

Other indigenous nations were were matrilineal. Women of the six nations Iroquois confederacy (Haudenosaunee) had a political voice on this land for at least 1,000 years.

The male chiefs who are the representatives of their clan in the confederacy of the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, Seneca, and Tuscarora Nations are selected, held in office, and removed by women – the clan mothers. Founded on the shores of Onondaga Lake, this oldest continuing democracy in the world is based on a system of gender balance. The position of the chief is vested in the clan mother, who is the eyes and ears of the people, while the chief is her voice. Women were “the great power among the clan, as everywhere else,” Elizabeth Cady Stanton marveled. Lucretia Mott wrote about listening to “speeches of their chiefs, women as well as men” (clan mothers and chiefs) when she visited the Cattaraugus Seneca community during the summer of 1848 before Mott, with Stanton and Quaker friends, organized the Seneca Falls convention.

In other words, the Beloved and Haudenosaunee women influenced the Women's Suffrage Movement.

No Woman No Cry (Bob Marley) Reggae

A song about a man who bids farewell to his beloved woman, with whom he has shared hardships, and goes off to war. I would say it's an almost perfect song. However, I once met a woman who said, ``I don't like this song.'' I'm guessing that this is probably because it can be interpreted as a song about "a selfish man who leaves her for whatever reason." Women may want men to always be by their side.

No woman no cry（ボブ・マーリー）レゲエ

苦労を分かち合った最愛の女性に別れを告げ、戦地に赴く男性の歌。ほぼ完璧な歌と言って良い。ただ、以前、「この歌、嫌い」と言っていた女性に出会ったことがある。たぶん、「なんだかんだ理由をつけて、自分の許から去っていく、自分勝手な男性」の歌とも取れるからだろうと、彼女の心の中を推測している。女性は、いつも男性に、そばにいて欲しいのかも。

Look me in the eyes and distill all my secrets There are pyramids and gardens, an iron throne where I am a priestess And the mother to all dragons both on earth and in heaven And I possess my armor, arrows and crossbows Oh, I'm faster than a comet I'm as powerful as a planet! The mighty miracle woman, but whisper in my ear: "I want to wait for you, darling, from the shops and I will gift you Sicilian oranges "

A woman is like music, you can love her Even without understanding her Don’t hold her tight with your hands, or she will simply run away Don’t put pressure on her by telling what kind of woman she should be, Otherwise she will sting you Either she’s a queen, or an amazon, or a girl from a village ... I don’t care I want to be with someone like you

Choso was fairly…boring.

His life revolved around nothing but knowledge, video games and on some occasions books.

But oh when he met you, he was all about you. Loved how every 2-3 weeks you’ll get a different hair style and even different nails in different aesthetics.

He loved the way you smell and how fucking sweet you were, personality wise and pussy wise. And he loved how fucking well you treated him.

Especially now, as he laid back against your dark green satin pillows with your thick lips kissing right below his ear

“Like this baby?” Your French tip with light pink bows scrape against his abs. His breath stuttering and ragged. “Y-yea, a little l-lower.”

You were teaching him how to tell you what he wants. He just needed the comfort. The validation.

Your thumb trails down his neat happy trail but stops at his pubic bone, “right here?”

His hips twitched and he bites his lips, dark hair all over his forehead and slightly covered his eyes. Pink lips trembling like he wanted to cry. “N-nah I need it lower.”

You smiling knowingly at him, your lips move up his cheek and now your eye level with him. “Can’t you just tell me baby? I wanna make you feel so good.”

Choso thinks he can cum like this, cum with your fingers tickling his lower stomach, with your smell invading his privacy

“On my dick- fuck y-yes!” Once his words came out your fingers are on it,

His dick so heavy it didn’t even stand to full capacity, just leaking pre-cum and twitching after every inconvenience.

“F-faster mama, stroke it faster.” His fingers are gripping the sheets now, face red as he moans on your lips. You peck him slightly and he chases your lips once you move back.

“You’re soaking up my hand, it’s so sticky I can fucking hear it.” One of your hands circling messily over his wet tip while the other hand grips his balls.

His sweaty stomach clenches and unclenches all of five times before his hips start moving sloppily up against your hand, “m’ gonna f-fuckin cum. S-shit.” His eyes look at your breast that was covered in your white tank top and then your pussy lips that swallowed your purple panties “h-haah f-fuck! fuck fuck-“

Hot cum spurting everywhere, sliding down his abs and your fingers.

“Cum again in my mouth yea?”

I don’t know how some of you could watch blu eyed samurai and still debate Mizu’s gender like hello ??? media literacy dead ??? Mizu is a woman, that’s the whole fucking point !!!! That’s her biggest crime !!!

Eiji couldn’t care less about her heritage but he literally cut her off when she tried to confess her gender !!!!

Mikio was fine with her being half white but the moment she dared to show him that -as a woman- she was a greater fighter it was over. His ego was irreparably hurt because a woman defeated him !!!!

And he calls her a monster !!!! He calls her a monster because she’s a woman and she’s strong she’s capable she can fight she isn’t submissive and that’s the point !!!!!!!!!!!!!

#blue eyed samurai #mizu #my beloved #you see a strong female character and you immediately star to question whether she’s aCtUaLly a woman you have a lot to unpack I fear
