What is 'I'm gay' in Samoan?

Fa'afafine is a third gender specific to Samoan culture.

Fa'afafine are biological males who have a strong feminine gender orientation, which the Samoan parents recognize quite early in childhood, and then raise them as female children or rather 'third gender' children. They grow up as Fa'afafines, who are a gender category/identity altogether different from men and women, and so they have their distinct gender roles specific to them, different from both men and women. It is something which is not discouraged in the traditional fa'asamoa (Samoan society).

_ This is unrelated to the original question, fa'afafine are not homosexuals, and the question was for the translation of a whole sentence, not a word.

Why are Samoans so rude?

You find rudeness and politeness in all walks of life, in every culture and every ethnic group. Samoans could say the same of other cultures. We will never find peace and unity in this world if we continue to criticise and see bad in each other. The world would be a beautiful place if people learn to be tolerant of each, accept that we all have differences in each others cultures and ways of life, and be open minded about it. So please learn not to generalise - you might have met one or two Samoans that you might have thought were rude, but that does not mean that all Samoans are rude, and that goes for any other culture as well. God bless.
