indigo children are becoming MUCH more common.

part of why all the queer numbers are up too. shamans have a history of basically being treated like a third gender, neither hypermasculine nor hyperfeminine but something mystical in between, as is necessary for an all-encompassing metaphysical comprehension.

But in the era of identity politics, this gets (perhaps an intentional psy-op) funneled into "well I don't feel traditional male, so I must be trans, i need to disrupt the stability of my mind and body with mutilation and hormones" "I don't fit either gender, so I'm some hyperspecific snowflake flavor of quasi-sexual nonbinary that only 3 other people on the planet even know the definition of." At the UK's only gender clinic for kids, it was discovered *50%* of the children referred were just Aspergers. I'd be willing to be the remainder were still one of the other frequently comorbid forms of neurodivergent (ADD, Gifted). Studies of "Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria" determined 47.5% of the individuals had been diagnosed as academically gifted in childhood. 30% of ALL gifted children identify as some form of queer or queer questioning.

All three "neurodivergencies" also have a much higher rate of recreational illegal drug use, even though one would expect their respective greater comprehension/need for routine would create a dissuasion effect. They're not acting out of stupidity or peer pressure, they have a good understanding of the risk, and yet... they feel called to it anyways. Because of course they do, hallucinogens and cannabinoids have been used by shamans for millennia. The DMT elves beckon them from beyond the veil.

Yes many cultures around the globe recognize more than 2 gender castes.
They basically never recognize more than 3. Male caste, Female caste, Androgenous caste whence come mystics. Modern society has buried deep the concept of the androgenous shaman and offered LGBT as replacement, leading thousands away from their birthright.
