An AFAB person becomes a sworn virgin by swearing an irrevocable oath, in front of 12 village or tribal elders, to practice celibacy. Then they are allowed to live as a man. They will then be able to dress in male clothes, use a male name, carry a gun, smoke, drink alcohol, take on male work, act as the head of a household (for example, living with a sister or mother), play music and sing, and sit and talk socially with men.<sup id="cite_ref-Murray_1997_198_17-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Murray_1997_198-17">[16]</a></sup> An AFAB person can become a sworn virgin at any age. Breaking the vow is punishable by death, but it is dubious if this is still enforced. Sworn virgins who are alive today refuse to break the vow for fear of losing the respect of their communities. There are many reasons why an AFAB person would have wanted to take this vow, and observers have recorded a variety of motivations. One said they became a sworn virgin in order to not be separated from their father, and another in order to live and work with her sister. Several were recorded as saying they always felt more male than female. Some hoped to avoid a specific unwanted marriage, and others hoped to avoid marriage in general. This practice has died out in many places, but still continues in some areas. Albanian sworn virgins appear to benefit from a certain degree of male privilege; they are allowed to smoke, visit taverns, and generally display a carriage of confidence and independence rarely found among cisgender women in patriarchal Albanian culture.</li> <li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femminiello" class="extiw" title="wp:Femminiello" rel="nofollow"><span style="color:#477979 !important;" title="Wikipedia: Femminiello">Femminielli</span></a><sup><img alt="" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5a/Wikipedia%27s_W.svg/12px-Wikipedia%27s_W.svg.png" decoding="async" width="12" height="12" srcset="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5a/Wikipedia%27s_W.svg/18px-Wikipedia%27s_W.svg.png 1.5x, https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5a/Wikipedia%27s_W.svg/24px-Wikipedia%27s_W.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="128" data-file-height="128" /></sup>, or <i>femmenielli</i> (singular <i>femminiello</i>), a term that derives from the singular Italian <i>femmina</i>, "a female," and <i>-ello</i>, masculine diminutive suffix, are <a href="/wiki/Androphilic" class="mw-redirect" title="Androphilic">androphilic</a> AMAB people with feminine gender expression in traditional Neapolitan culture. It may be hard to define this term within modern Western notions of "gay men" versus "trans women", since both these categories overlap to a degree, in the case of <i>femminielli</i>. It has been noted that this term is not derogatory and does not carry stigma, instead <i>femminielli</i> are traditionally believed to bring good luck. Ironically Achille della Ragione suggests that recent surveys have shown that Neapolitans have a generally negative view of what he calls "the politically correct model of homosexuality of a hypocritical do-gooder society" (implying the mainstream Western gay culture), yet he contrasts <i>femminielli</i> as enjoying a favorable attitude in Neapolitan society.<sup id="cite_ref-Ragione_18-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Ragione-18">[17]</a></sup> Achille della Ragione has written of social aspects of <i>femminielli</i>. "[The <i>femminiello</i>] is usually the youngest male child, 'mother's little darling,' (..) he is useful, he does chores, runs errands and watches the kids." A certain incompatibility between the notions of <i>femminiello</i> and (often foreign-born) transgender people can be observed, e.g., a news headline reading <i>Rivolta ai quartieri Spagnoli: i femminielli cacciano le trans</i> ("Revolt in the Spanish Quarter: <i>femminielli</i> drive out the transsexuals.")
