Video Title: Funny Dance By Transgender In Punjab | Indian Transgender Dance | Kinnars Dance
Hijra / Kinnar is a term used in South Asia – particularly in India and Pakistan – to refer to trans women (male-to-female transgender individuals). In different areas of Pakistan and India, transgender people are also known as Aravani, Aruvani or Jagappa.
In Pakistan and Bangladesh, the hijras are officially recognized as third gender by the government, being neither completely male nor female. In India also, transgender people have been given the status of third gender and are protected as per the law despite the social ostracism. The term more commonly advocated by social workers and transgender community members themselves is khwaja sira and can identify the individual as a transsexual person, transgender person (khusras), cross-dresser (zenanas) or eunuch (narnbans).
Hijras have a recorded history in the Indian subcontinent from antiquity onwards as suggested by the Kama Sutra period. This history features a number of well-known roles within subcontinental cultures, part gender-liminal, part spiritual and part survival.
