Meti (not to be confused with the Canadian Métis people) is a third gender from Napali culture. They are feminine displaying in male born bodies.
History
Metis became an officially recognized third gender in the country of Nepal as of a Supreme Court ruling in 2007. As of this Supreme Court ruling, metis are now officially recognized by the Nepalese government – and are able to have a government-issued ID card that lists “both” as an option under “gender”.
In the country of Nepal ‘unnatural sex’ is still illegal despite slowly progressive inclusion of a third-gender on registration forms. An example was in 2004 when 39 meti individuals were arrested for ‘spreading perversion’ as result of the lack of LGBT support among Nepalese laws.
