| Sumario: | A kuikuro akinha (narrative) makes the author think and write again about sexes and sexualities of women (and men) in a corner of the Amerindian world and in our kagaiha (non-indigenous) world. The character of the akinha is Ájahi, the Urutau bird-people, who undertakes a journey to find out what the vagina would be like from the inside. It is a fun and serious narrative, at the same time, that leads to complementarities, developments and contrasts. Egü (vulva or vagina) is another character, vagina-person, who crosses Amerindian mythological thought in fragments and transformations. Vulva "good to be thought of". |
