15. Third gender
Third gender or third sex is a concept in which individuals are
categorized, either by themselves or by society, as neither man
nor woman. It also describes a social category present in those
societies that recognize three or more genders.
Not all cultures have strictly defined gender roles.
16. According to law & Constitution
In a landmark decision in 2009,
the Supreme Court ordered NADRA
to allow individuals to self-identify themselves as ‘transgender-
male’ or ‘transgender-female’
on national identity cards,
infact providing official recognition to the third gender.
17. In 2012, the Supreme Court affirmed
the status of hermaphrodites as equal citizens
under the Constitution of Pakistan,
with equal guarantee and protection of all fundamental rights.
The Court ordered that hermaphrodites
be provided the right to participate in all walks of life,
to exercise franchise, receive education and access employment.

that stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender…

20. Nadia`s Story;
A heart-breaking story to tell. “A man saw me
dancing at a wedding and fell in love with me.
He wanted to marry me. I liked him too, but I
knew I couldn’t give him children and his
family would never have accepted me, so I
said no. He came after me here, right outside
my house. He grabbed my hair and chopped it
off, then he beat me. Everyone in the
neighbourhood watched but no one came to
my assistance.”
21. Conclusion
There seems to be no reason why a transgender must be
denied right human rights which include;
rights of life & liberty with dignity, right to privacy and freedom
of expression, rights to education and empowerment ,right
against violence.
Constitution has fulfilled its duty of providing rights to
transgender.
Now its time for us to recognize this & to extend & interpret the
constitution in such a manner to ensue dignified life of
3rd gender people.
