An example of a third gender role is found among the Hijra in India.
Hijras are intersex or transgender people found in the Indian subcontinent. They present an example of a third gender role. They have official recognition as a third gender and are considered neither entirely male nor female.
These communities have a long history, and were even mentioned by the Kama Sutra. While some are born with intersex variations, others may be assigned male at birth and later get inducted into the hijra community.
They reside in well-organized communities based on a kinship system, usually headed by a guru. Many are forced to earn their livelihood as sex workers due to poverty and social stigma
