: May I ask your reasoning for changing the title of the article? It had previously been established as "spirituality" rather than "religion," because the paths in question aren't necessarily centrally organized so as to be defined as "religions" per se. I'm also curious as to your reasoning to changing "variance" to "divergence" in the title. "Variance" seems to be the more consistently used term, of the two, in the wiki, and in its sources. Personally, I feel that gender divergence is a less respectful term than gender variance. -[[User:Sekhet|Sekhet]] ([[User talk:Sekhet|talk]]) 05:33, 10 May 2019 (UTC) | : May I ask your reasoning for changing the title of the article?

:I have included androgynous creation deities, however I deleted a few creation deities with no explicit gender variance. And I disagree with the idea that a deity making a person trans makes them a patron to trans people when there are trans deities that make a lot more sense as a patron. However I would not be opposed to a separate article/section on deities who are kind to trans people! | |||
As for the title, because these are deities, and because the list has little to do with spiritual practice and more to do with religion, deities, and their stories. I'm ok with "variance", but I feel strongly about "religion". Also, I appreciate your edits! I'm glad to see specified tribes in the americas section. --[[User:MorningSparrow|MorningSparrow]] ([[User talk:MorningSparrow|talk]]) 22:26, 11 May 2019 (UTC) | |||
