Default Anyone betting on the spelling Bee?

I see that Intertops currently has a line on this event. Anyone going to wager on it besides maybe Picoman ?

Will the winner be Male or Female

Option Win Odds
Male -140
Female +100
40 cent drop is outrageous

These include makkunrai (feminine woman), calabai (feminine man), calalai (masculine female), oroané (masculine man), and bissu (embodying both male and female energies, revered as a shaman).

i wonder how does two bissu copulate.
